The trend outlook in Treasury futures is bullish and the latest pullback appears corrective. Recent gains delivered a print above 112-15+, the Aug 5 high and a bull trigger. A breach of this hurdle confirms a resumption of the current bull cycle and signals scope for an extension towards the 113-00 handle. Moving average studies are in a bull-mode position, reinforcing a bull theme. First support to watch is 111-31+, the 20-day EMA. 

The Elysee confirmed that French President Emmanuel Macron, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and ‘several other heads of state’ will speak with President Donald Trump at 08:00 ET 13:00 BST tomorrow, after a meeting of the ‘Coalition of the Willing’ in Paris.

• Trump said alongside Polish President Karol Nawrocki in the Oval Office that roughly 10,000 US soldiers will remain deployed in Poland, adding that number could be increased "if they want".
• Zelenskyy confirmed a short time ago that he discussed a US backstop to security guarantees w/EU counterparts in Copenhagen today: “We have signals from the US of a possible backstop [and] the role of EU membership in this holistic system of security guarantees...”
• Trump reiterated to reporters yesterday that there will be “consequences” for Putin slow-walking a meeting with Zelenskyy. He added: “I had actually a very good meeting with [Putin] a couple of weeks ago. We'll see if anything comes out of it. If it doesn't, we'll take a different stance.”
• It is unlikely Putin's recent concessions on a meeting will be seen by the White House as sufficient progress. See SECURITY: Putin Offers To Meet Zelenskyy And Trump In Moscow
• Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told Fox on Monday that “all options are on the table” for further sanctions on Russia, adding “we’ll be examining those very closely this week.”
• Bessent and White House officials said EU countries need to align with the US on halting Russian oil purchases, but have equivocated on pursuing a similar secondary oil tariff on China to the one imposed on India.
• US Ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, told Bloomberg yesterday that the US has refrained from imposing secondary sanctions on China because of ongoing trade negotiations.
