CANADA: Further Outperformance For Rates/Yields

Nov-23 13:23
  • With GoCs flat to rallying vs Tsys +2-2.5bps on the day, negative Can-US yield differentials continue to widen, at -61bp for the 2Y and -75bp for the 10Y.
  • These yield differentials are towards the lower end of recent ranges, with a solid US docket in focus until BoC Gov. Macklem testifies at a House Committee late on at 1630ET.
  • Somewhat larger outperformance in rates space, with BAX futures also little changed out to early 2024 (in admittedly light, early trading) compared to SOFR yields up as much as 9bps.

UK: Gilts, GBP Retrace Quick Gain As Sunak Wins Leadership Race

Oct-24 13:06

Gilts move about 25 ticks higher as Mordaunt exits the Conservative leadership race - then quickly retrace. See intraday chart below - similar movement in GBP vs EUR.

  • With Sunak about 98% priced by betting exchanges to win by the time Mordaunt's announcement came out, understandably not much market reaction to the news.
  • Attention quickly turns to Sunak's address to MPs at 1430UK time.
