  • Moves started shortly after the European fixed income cash open, with the Euribor/SONIA strips moving lower more than the Eurodollar strip. EUR helped also by the French HICP data but has accelerated after the print.
  • Dollar bloc currencies all strengthening on the day now, despite oil moving lower and the RBA now delivering as hawkish a message as some had expected.
