AUSSIE BONDS
AUSSIE BONDS: The space has pulled back from its SYCOM/SFE opening highs, with
the 3-Year future last at 97.925 (+1.0 tick) while the 10-Year future last
trades at 97.26 (unch)
- The moves have largely tracked Tsys after US President Trump announced his
trade tariff plans in the metals space, which led to broad risk off sentiment.
- US yields have ticked up since the reopen, with Aussie yields also off lows.
- The domestic 3-/10-Year curve has steepened thus far, with the yield
differential 1.1bp higher at 68.7bp, while the AU/US 10-Year spread has
compressed this morning, last sitting 4.4bp tighter at 6.9bp.
- The white pack of the bill strip is largely unchanged but a block buyer of
IRM8 was noted earlier.
- ANZ suggest that "today should see the AUD yields move lower. Semi-Gov't bonds
should perform, following the announcement of the Federal Gov't buying stakes in
Snowy Hydro from NSW & Victoria."
- Risk events in the session are limited, with focus set to fall on the BoJ's
Rinban ops. Markets await any response from China to Trump's tariffs.
