US TSY/RECAP: T-Notes blipped lower heading into the close, finishing around

Wednesday's session re-opening levels after hovering shy of early session highs

- The session held the highest volume of the week, but U.S. trade was still

somewhat subdued after the early risk-off bid as U.S.-China trade tensions

ratcheted higher.

- There was little reaction to mildly stronger than expected U.S. PPI.

- The 10-Year Note auction fared better than Tuesday's 3-Year auction, stopping

through, while the cover ratio and dealer takedown were steady.

- Fed's Williams offered little fresh on MonPol in a late address.

- Focus on Thursday moves to U.S. CPI, addresses from Kashkari & Harker, as well

as the 30-Year Bond auction.

- T-Notes last at 120.07+, U.S. 10-Year Tsy yields closed at 2.849%.
