US TSYS/OVERNIGHT REPO: SOFR Softens As Month-End Effects Continue To Reverse
US TSYS/OVERNIGHT REPO
Monday saw a swift reversal lower in repo rates, per NY Fed data out today: SOFR fell 4bp to 4.82%, and vs 4.90% posted on Oct 31. This is largely due to month-end effects which are now unwinding. Nothing in the distribution of rates by percentiles looks out of the ordinary for a post-month end move (see chart). Meanwhile, effective Fed funds remain steady as usual - though are set to drop effective Friday after the expected Fed 25bp rate cut on Thursday (to a range of 4.50-4.75%).
