JGBS
JGBS: The 20-Year JGB auction was well received, the low price came in at 100.10
(exp. 100.00), with a slightly higher bid-to-cover at this auction compared to
the previous adding further support. The supply will have been supported by the
unfavourable FX-hedged U.S. Tsy yields in play for Japanese lifers, with the
super-long end of the JGB curve unwinding its pre-auction concession and now
moving higher on the day.
- Daily studies looking to correct from modestly overbought levels in futures
and the lack of topside follow through remain concerns for bulls. In saying
that, bears still need a close below 150.89 to ease bullish pressure and return
initial focus to 150.71-80.
