BUNDS: Trading back at pre Cash Open level

Apr-09 08:51
  • The German Bund is now back above where it was trading at on the Cash Open, when it fell a quick big 115 ticks, as Govies caught up with some of the big moves seen Overnight in Treasuries.
  • Bund was trading at 130.25 pre Cash Open.
  • The earlier bid in Risk has ran out of steam, and the selling looked to be Cash led in European Equities, although nothing big in terms of moves.
  • US Tnotes has already seen over 1.2mln traded lots for this time of the Day, but the contract has stayed in a fairly tight range since the EU Open.
  • Since Bund is up 36 ticks and US Tnotes is down 19.5 ticks, the Tnotes/Bund spread widens another 9bps and look to test the 175bps resistance right here.
