EUROZONE ISSUANCE: EGB Supply Daily

Jul-01 05:51

Germany, Spain and France look to hold conventional auctions this week, Belgium is scheduled to hold an ORI auction while Italy is scheduled to hold a buyback. We pencil in estimated gross issuance for the week of E24.6bln, down from E31.2bln last week.

For the full MNI EGB Supply Daily publication with a look ahead to the next two weeks of issuance and a recap of Q3 issuance plans, click here.

  • Germany will kick off issuance for the quarter tomorrow with a E6bln auction to launch the new 10-year Aug-35 Bund ISIN (DE000BU2Z056). Note that the size of this auction was increased by E1bln from E5bln in the Q3 calendar update. The E6bln auction size is the largest for a non-Schatz German auction since 2011 (and the largest of any German auction since September 2023). This is also the only E6bln German auction scheduled for Q3. The coupon will be announced this morning.
  • On Wednesday, Italy has announced it will hold a buyback for up to E5bln via the Banca d’Italia. The MEF will look to buyback the following: the 3.10% Aug-26 BTP Short Term (ISIN: IT0005607269), the 3.80% Apr-26 BTP (ISIN: IT0005538597), the 1.60% Jun-26 BTP (ISIN: IT0005170839), the 1.25% Dec-26 BTP (ISIN: IT0005210650) and the Apr-26 CCTeu (ISIN: IT0005428617).
    • Note that this is in addition to the E16.4bln redemption of the formerly 5-year BTP that was due on 1 July.

Schatz futures traded lower Friday but for now, the contract remains inside a range and price is trading below the Jun 13 high. Support to watch is 107.195, the Jun 6 low. It has been pierced, a clear break of it would reinstate a bearish threat and signal scope for an extension towards 107.125, the May 12 low. On the upside, clearance of 107.470, the May 30 high, is required to strengthen a bullish condition. Initial firm resistance is 107.430, Jun 13 high.
