US TSYS: The PBoC's decision to partially roll some of the maturing 1-Year MLF,

coupled with a steady interest rate being applied to the ops, provided some

support to core global FI overnight. Although the initial, limited knee jerk has

now faded. Some sceptisicsm from quarters of the U.S. biz community (Chamber of

the space, with this week's jnr ministerial talks now formally unveiled.

- T-Notes last +0-02 at 129-04, yields 0.8-1.4bp lower across the curve.

Eurodollar futures sit unch. to 4.0 ticks higher through the reds.

- Production data provides the highlight of the local docket today, with the

fallout from the weekend attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure still front &

centre pre-FOMC (the latest MonPol decision is scheduled for Wednesday).

Elsewhere, 10-Year TIPS supply will be observed. Short-end funding matters will

be eyed after yesterday's spike in repo. Some have attributed the spike to tax

payments, coupon settlements and the associated reserve drains, but others have

been pointing to a structural $ funding storm for some time.
