T-Notes Catch Light Bid On Trump's Fiscal Remarks, JGBs & ACGBs Ignore Local Releases

U.S. Pres Trump's T-Notes pushback against the $900bn economic relief package passed by the Congress has generated a light bid in T-Notes, even as the POTUS fell short of directly threatening to veto the package. In a tweeted video, Pres Trump lambasted the low value of stimulus checks funded by the package and some "wasteful and unnecessary" measures included in the bill, asking lawmakers to "send me a suitable bill or else the next administration will have to deliver a Covid relief package and maybe that administration will be me." T-Notes last sit +0-02 at 138-01+, trading through Tuesday highs but off the best levels of the session (138-03). Cash Tsy curve runs flatter, with yields seen +0.2bp to -1.4bp as we type.
