  • 2s10s at 14.5bp has lifted 1.6bps but remains within recent ranges and below latest ytd highs of 24.1bp.
  • TYZ4 hovers close to session lows of 114-17+ (-04+) on close to average cumulative volumes of 313k having remained within Tuesday’s range throughout.
  • Yesterday’s broader gains helped it move further away from support at 114-07+ (Sep 26 low) whilst the high of 115-00+ came close to testing 115-02+ (Sep 19 high) after which lies the bull trigger at 115-23+ (Sep 11 high).
  • Data: MBA mortgage applications Sep 27 (0700ET), ADP employment Sep (0815ET)
