US TSYS: Bear Flatter With A Light Docket Ahead Of The Fed

May-07 10:57
  • Treasuries trade bear flatter, with the front end paring some of yesterday’s gains as investors favor pricing a next 25bp cut in July and for now don't want to price in that much more than 75bp of cuts for 2025 as a whole.
  • Risk sentiment was supported on early headlines of US-China trade talks scheduled in Switzerland for later this week. This was followed by PBoC easing but US equity futures and Tsy yields are subsequently off session highs.
  • Cash yields are 0-3bp higher on the day, with increases led by 3s whilst 20s and 30s lag.
  • 5s30s at 88bps is firmly off cycle highs of 100bps from May 1.
  • TYM5 trades at 111-08+ (-01+) for close to yesterday’s highs of 111-12+, on another subdued overnight session with volumes at 230k despite no Japan holiday today.
  • It hasn’t troubled resistance at 112-01+ (May 2 high) and the contract still trades close to recent lows, undermining the recent bull cycle. Support is seen at 110-27+ (May 6 low).
  • Fed: FOMC announcement (1400ET), Chair Powell press conference (1430ET)
  • Data: Weekly MBA mortgage data (0700ET), Consumer credit Mar (1500ET)
  • Tsy Sec Bessent also sees day two of his Congressional testimony at 1000ET.
