Treasuries open NY higher, yield....>

US TSYS SUMMARY
US TSYS SUMMARY: Treasuries open NY higher, yield curves mixed (5/30Y steeper)
after overnight two-way flows mainly tilted toward Tsys bid. Mkt awaits 8:15am
ET ADP private payrolls. 
- TOKYO: Tsys traded fairly quiet for first few hours; about 9pm ET Tues, Tsys
bottomed out and then crept higher ever since, bid as US$ slipped into London
hours. Flow included macro acct buying in belly to long end w/Japanese insurance
portfolios in 10s and 30s. Tsys aided by softer Asian stocks; NIkkei ends off
2%. 
- LONDON: Softer stocks aid EGBS, Tsys. Weaker US$/yen also aids Tsys. Tsys saw
light sales in 5Y, 7Y, 10Y. 
- US Pres. Trump expected to back Jerusalem as Israel's capital later today;
some warn of Palestinian "3 days of rage" if that occurs; Bloomberg noted words
of Trump news key (i.e., does he say all of Jerusalem to be Israel capital?) 
- OVERNIGHT REPO: Current 10-year note remains very hot, still -3.00%; bid won't
let up until at least Nov. 15th, as MNI said last night, as it's due to usual
pre-auction shorts but also as shorts/bears fixate on current 10Y note.
