BONDS: Europe Pi: Eurex Largely Flat/Long Into Rolls

Jun-02 15:30

The June/September Eurex futures roll started at the end of last week, with volumes today suggesting most contracts are likely to be roughly 40% complete as of the close of Monday's trade vs 10-20% Friday). 

  • Generally speaking there are few positioning updates from our May 20 pre-Gilt roll (which is completed) Europe Pi, which showed Schatz in long positioning and Bobl/Buxl/Bund in flat positioning heading into the rolls (the latest move to "short" in the table below for Bund looks roll-related).
  • OAT remained flat and BTP remained long going into the rolls. Gilts are showing "flat" vs "very long" into the roll but we would take caution in interpreting the structural positioning given the rolling process.
  • (Note also in the table below, "Latest week's trade" becomes more difficult to interpret in this context due to dropping OIs.)
