US TSYS: Modestly Lower Ahead Of Notable Risk Events

US TSYS
  • Treasuries sit lower across the curve amidst some risk-on flows with equity futures gaining, modestly underperforming EGBs and Gilts in the process.
  • It’s ahead of an important session including both retail sales and jobless claims (with initial for a payrolls reference period) plus potential spillover from the ECB decision at 0815ET.
  • Cash yields are 1-2bp lower, with declines led by 20s.
  • 10Y yields at 4.032% hold their reversal after dipping below 4% yesterday.
  • 2s10s at 9bps (+1bp) lifts a little off yesterday’s lows but remains within ranges over the past month.
