US TSY FUTURES: OI Data Points To Sizeable Flattener Flow On Wednesday
US TSY FUTURES
Preliminary OI data indicates huge positioning swings in Tsy futures during Wednesday’s twist flattening.
- A reminder that some suggested that steepener deleveraging was the driving positioning force during yesterday’s move, but the OI data pushes back against that idea, pointing to flatteners being set.
- TU, FV & TY futures were seemingly subjected to net short setting, while UXY, US & WN futures saw net long setting dominate.
- The net short setting seen in TY futures is huge by all accounts, with just under $18mn of fresh net DV01 equivalent exposure added in the contract.
