BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: U.S. President Trump drove risk-off price action overnight, as he
stated that "China broke the deal" and "they will be paying." This was followed
up with "China looted our country for years, whatever happens with trade talks
happens, don't worry about it, it will all work out," which saw a chunk of the
initial risk-off moves retraced, before they resumed ahead of the Chinese trade
delegation touching down in Washington later today. T-Notes last deal at
123.28+. The belly has outperformed in the cash space. 10-Year cash Tsy yields
last 2.464%. Eurodollar futures trade 0.5 to 2.5 ticks higher through the reds.
- In the Aussie bond space, YM +1.5 ticks, with XM +1.5 ticks. YM/XM last trades
at 47.0 ticks, with the cash equivalent at 43.3bp. Bills trade unchanged to 3
ticks higher through the reds.
- JGB futures last deal 1 tick higher, with yields little changed across the
curve at writing. Modest flattening had been seen earlier in the day. The BoJ
left the size of its 5-10 Year Rinban operations unchanged, while BoJ Governor
Kuroda offered little new in his latest address.
- German FI relatively unchanged; Schatz unch, Bobls +3.0 ticks, Bunds +8 ticks.
