US TSYS
US TSYS: The FOMC May meeting minutes contained multiple mentions of the
symmetrical inflation objective. The most notable move came in Fed Fund futures,
with a bid noted as the Fed suggested that it is likely that it will raise the
IOER by a smaller increment (20bp) alongside the next rate hike.
- The space took a fresh leg higher after WSJ reported that the Trump admin is
considering a plan to impose new tariffs on imported vehicles, which the
President has now instructed the Comm Sec to investigate. The space gained
further ground in as questions re: the US-North Korea summit continue to do the
rounds, with a North Korean diplomat suggested that he would recommend that his
country's leadership reconsider attending the upcoming US-NK summit.
- Cash Tsys are higher, although the longer end is underperforming. T-Notes sit
just off of highs, 10-Year yields sub 3.00%.
- The Eurodollar strip has continued to edge higher.
- Fed's Dudley, Bostic, Kaplan & Harker will all speak today. There is also
7-Year Note supply.
- T-Notes last at 119.15+, 10-Year yield last at 2.986%.
