May-28 06:22
  • The German Bund saw a small gap lower on the Open, JGBs have once again led some of the small price action, with some Investors focused on the Long JGB 40yr Auction which came on the lower side of demand.

  • Below here, would see 130.15 next.
  • The opening small gap is up to 131.02, but better resistance is still eyed at 131.72 and 132.03 (April high).
  • For Treasuries, the June contract is still the most Active, but we will be quoting September as this will become the front Month during Today's session.
  • Immediate support in TYU5 comes at 110.06+, but better is seen towards 109.25.
  • There's isn't much in terms of real needle moving Data for Today, French GDP is final reading, ECB CPI Expectations are due, and on the margin, some will be watching the FOMC minutes, but again unlikely to be a market mover, with focus squarely on Tariffs.
  • SUPPLY: UK £2.75bn 8yr (Equates to 17.8k Gilt) could somewhat weigh, Germany 2038, 2040 (equates combined 8.7k Buxl) should have limited impact. US Sells $70bn of 5yr notes and $28bn 2yr reopening.
