BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: Tsys were happy to meander along in Asia-Pac hours, holding a
tight 0-04 range ahead of the latest round of monthly NFP data and the elongated
Independence Day weekend. Contract last +0-01 at 138-31+, yields virtually
unchanged across the curve. Market remains at ease with the latest escalation in
Sino-U.S. tension, while the minutes from the Fed's latest monetary policy
decision showed a broad desire for a deepening of forward guidance (in one way
or another) and widespread uncertainty/differing views re: the prospect of YCC.
- A similar story for Aussie bond futures, with little to wet the whistle
domestically, in addition to a fairly limited Asia-Pac session on the headline
front. YM unch., XM -0.5.
- A solid round of 10-Year JGB supply and another uptick in new COVID-19 cases
in Tokyo supported JGB futures in afternoon trade, allowing them to reverse
their overnight/morning losses, with the contract printing unchanged at typing.
10s now outperform on the curve in cash trade in the wake of supply, although
yields are higher further out the curve, with worries over longer end supply
dynamics still evident.
