US TSYS SUMMARY
US TSYS SUMMARY: Treasuries have ground higher Thursday ahead of a deluge of
U.S. data and a fair few Fed speakers.
- Overnight risk appetite subdued by combative rhetoric from U.S. trade advisor
Navarro & the EIC of China's Global Times. Gains in European hours more elusive.
- 10-Yr futures (TY) up 4/32 at 131-8.5 (L: 131-01.5 / H: 131-10), amid a bit of
bull flattening in the curve: 2-Yr yield down 1.2bps at 1.466%, 5-Yr down 1.6bps
at 1.4154%, 10-Yr down 2.1bps at 1.5786%, and 30-Yr down 2.2bps at 2.0656%.
- Key data kicks off with Jobless claims (0830ET), then at 1000ET we get ISM Sep
Non-Manufacturing and Aug factory orders.
- Market may be looking at other signals of data deterioration ahead of NFPs
Fri., so Sep Challenger layoffs (0730ET) may garner more attention than usual.
- Little new from Chicago's Evans in Madrid this morning (remains open-minded to
further rate adjustment). Also in Europe, VC Quarles speaks at a bank conference
in Brussels (0830ET).
- This followed by Cleveland's Mester at 1210ET on a panel hosted by Ex-Fed
Bernanke. Then Dallas` Kaplan at 1300ET, and later VC Clarida at 1835ET.
