T-Notes have managed a marginal extension...>

US TSYS
US TSYS: T-Notes have managed a marginal extension through Monday's high, with
yields 3.5-4.1bp lower after the extended weekend for cash Tsy traders.
- Monday's session saw equities hit lower, with worries over North Korean
missile construction, as well as U.S. trade policy re: auto tariffs & fighting
China's IP theft via export controls adding weight. Heavyweight Apple also
struggled on some negative brokerage remarks. This leant a bid to Tsy futures on
the day, although volume remained limited with the cash market closed. 
- We also heard from Fed's Daly, who noted that "the U.S. economy at full
employment with stable prices calls for a gradual normalization of monetary
policy." Daly went on to outline her data dependant stance, while noting that
she hasn't yet decided on whether she will vote for a December rate hike or not,
although she did stress that it is appropriate for the Fed to get back to
neutral.
- Fed's Brainard, Kashkari & Harker will all speak on Tuesday.
- The white & red Eurodollar contracts last trade unchanged to 1 tick higher.
- T-Notes last 118.14+, U.S. 10-Year cash Tsy yields last 3.147%.
