BUNDS: /SWAPS: Commerzbank Remain Short ASWs

Mar-13 08:21

Commerzbank note that “swap spreads remain under heavy pressure”

  • “We have made the case that ‘this tightening is different’ as the latest leg tighter is entirely driven by the (ultra-)long-end.”
  • “With 30y spreads already de-anchored above swaps as free-floating flows meet aggressive issuance, there is a risk that the 10y point will be much less anchored by Schatz spreads than thought before.”
  • “We stay short.”
