BONDS: There has been little in the way of headline news flow apparent during
Asia-Pac hours, but that hasn't stopped a modest risk-off tone creeping in over
the last hour or so. Points of note include Trump resuming his usual Twitter
games re: U.S.-China trade matters after the weekend's developments, while the
FT recently reported that "a group of senators have written to Rick Perry
calling on the US energy secretary to ban solar equipment made by Huawei saying
the Chinese tech group's equipment poses a national security threat to the US'
critical energy structure." A report also suggested that U.S. warships sailed
through the Taiwan Strait, which will have done little to support risk assets.
