US TSY FUTURES CLOSE
US TSY FUTURES CLOSE: Trades weaker by the bell, well off first half lows, long
end underperforming. Brief rebound after the 3Y note auction. Rates gravitated
off late morning lows amid risk-off bid (partially tied to concerns over N Korea
nuclear capability), that in turn helped Yen regain some ground vs. USD after
latter surged couple hours ago. Current futures levels:
* Sep Ultra bonds down 27/32 at 165-16 (165-06L/166-17H)
* Sep 30-yr Bond futures down 18/32 at 153-24 (153-17L/154-16H)
* Sep 10-yr futures down 5.5/32 at 126-00 (125-29L/126-07.5H)
* Sep 5-yr futures down 3.25/32 at 118-05.25 (118-03.5L/118-08.75H)
* Sep 2-yr futures down 1/32 at 108-04.5 (108-04.25L/108-05.5H)
