  • The SOFR implied terminal yield of 3.31% (SFRZ6) is 1bp lower on the day as it holds close to ~100bp of cuts for what’s left of the cycle.
  • The limited change since the US crossover comes with net gains for US equity futures vs net losses for crude futures and spot gold.
  • G7 headlines today have seen Trump unwilling to sign the statement on Israel-Iran and looking at a US-Canada deal being achievable within days or weeks.
  • Today’s weak Empire manufacturing release didn’t move the needle, with the headline miss offset by a much-improved outlook within the report.
  • Tomorrow sees more notable data including retail sales and import prices for May at 0830ET before industrial production for May at 0915ET. They provide important hard data updates for May heading into the two-day FOMC meeting starting tomorrow.
