US TSYS SUMMARY
US TSYS SUMMARY: Treasuries remain on the front foot with a push higher in the
European morning, as equities took a sudden lurch lower around 0445ET on no
headline in particular.
- Curve is off flattest levels but long end still outperforming: The 2-Yr yield
is down 0.8bps at 0.1946%, 5-Yr is down 2.1bps at 0.3802%, 10-Yr is down 3bps at
0.7956%, and 30-Yr is down 3.1bps at 1.545%.
- Sep 10-Yr futures (TY) up 8.5/32 at 137-31.5 (L: 137-22 / H: 138-01).
- FOMC (1400ET decision/SEP; 1430ET Powell press conference) the main event
though May inflation data (0830ET) also of note.
- It's last call for our FOMC preview; we'll publish a few selected sell-side
synopses from the preview today. Link to PDF:

- In short: no action expected today by most analysts (most of whom see Yield
Curve Control/Fwd Guidance/Formal QE adopted later this year, the latter the
most probable of the three to come today); Dot Plot/SEP also eyed.
- $75bln in bill sales today; NYFed buying $6.5bln in Tsys.
