Volatility in Turkey and other.........>

BOND SUMMARY
BOND SUMMARY: Volatility in Turkey and other emerging markets has boosted
safe-haven bonds, with European periphery spreads selling off led by Italy.
- Concern over the ongoing budget process is helping send Italian BTPs lower,
with the curve out 5-6bps out to 10-Yrs. With Bunds roughly flat on the day,
spreads vs Germany are around 5-6bps wider.
- Earlier, 10-Yr BTP spreads hit the highest since early June at 277bps.
- US Treasury yields have risen from their lows but the belly of the curve
continues to outperform, with the 5-Yr yield down 1.4bps at 2.731%, 2s and 10s
down by 0.9bps.
- 10-Yr JGB yields are flat, but the rest of the curve has rallied 0.4-0.7bps.
- UK Gilts are a touch higher, with the Sep8 future up 4 ticks at 123.60.
- Rate future strips are a little flatter, with White Short Sterling and Euribor
contracts 0.5-1.0 ticks lower and Greens/Blues up 0.5-1.0 ticks.
- Thin data/speaker calendar the rest of Monday, with attention likely to remain
on developments in Turkey.
