T-Notes Tick Away From Thursday's Highs

US TSYS

Cheapening impetus crept in as Asia-Pac players went online, with T-Notes moving away from Thursday's peak. The contract's rally yesterday was sparked by below-forecast core PCE inflation & durable goods readings, with a post-market dip in e-minis generating another late-doors upswing in T-Notes.

  • T-Notes have found a base at 111-21 and last deal +0-01+ at 111.23+. Cash Tsy curve runs a touch steeper, with yields last seen -0.2bp to +1.4bp. The spread on 5-Year/30-Year Tsy yields returned above zero yesterday and continues to creep higher in early Tokyo trade.
  • The BoJ's monetary policy decision provide the focal point of the Asia session, with potential for spillover into other core FI markets in case of a JGB reaction.
  • Local data highlights today include employment cost index, personal income/spending, pending home sales & final Uni. of Mich. survey.
