Under Pressure As Oil Ticks Higher & Peers Soften
GILTS
Gilts weaken as an uptick in crude oil futures adds to pressure from modest upward revisions to final French & Spanish CPI data and yesterday’s soft 30-Year U.S. Tsy auction. Local headline flow has been light.
- That leaves futures -66 at 97.85. Initial support at yesterday’s low (97.63).
- Cash gilt yields are 5-7bp higher across the curve, 10s under the most pressure.
- GBP STIRs see some hawkish adjustments, with SONIA futures flat to -7.0, while BoE-dated OIS shows 12.5bp (50/50 odds) of an Aug cut and ~47.5bp of easing through Dec.
- U.S. inflation data will likely dominate into the weekend, with PPI and UoM readings due. The former will allow analysts to fine tune their PCE projections following yesterday’s soft CPI.
- Further out, Wednesday’s UK CPI release provides the next point of note on the domestic data calendar.
