OPTIONS: Large Euribor Profit Taking And Upside Post-ECB

Continued from earlier bullet on the Oval Office press spray between US President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. 

• Opening the spray, Trump teases a “very big announcement” to be made regarding the Yemeni Houthis ahead of his Middle East trip next week – a potentially major breakthrough that could remove a major bottleneck to global shipping.
• Trump: “It is really, really positive and that announcement will be made possible Thursday or Friday or Monday before we leave… It’ll be one of the most important announcements that have been made in many years.”
• Axios reports the Houthis have yet to confirm Trump's claim that they have stopped attacking targets in the Red Sea.
• Trump adds later - slightly cryptically -, that "we're going to have a great announcement and I'm not nessesarily saying its on trade... An announcement that will be so incredible... so positive."
• Noticably more flustered than during previous comments on Canada, Trump addresses questions on when trade deals will be signed: "We don't have to sign deals. We could sign 25 deals right now if we wanted... They want a piece of our market. We don't want a piece of their market. We don't care about their market."
• Trump continues: "At some point over the next two weeks, I'll sit down with [Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent] ... Put very fair numbers down and say here is what we want," suggesting negotiating parties can take it or leave it.
