EUROPEAN FIXED INCOME UPDATE: bonds under pressure pre-ECB

Analysis details (10:55)

Debt futures remain weak, albeit off worst levels after a retreat from early EU peaks amidst ongoing underperformance in Italian BTPs on political grounds alongside weakness in French OATs and Spanish Bonos amidst relatively heavy issuance. Bunds have pared some losses between 150.59-152.02 parameters around their 151.28 midweek close, while Gilts continue to lag within a 115.11-114.59 range vs Wednesday’s 115.18 Liffe settlement and the 10 year T-note is also nearer the bottom of a 117-31+/18 band. Ahead, all eyes and ears on the ECB and President Lagarde, but also attention on the US agenda that comprises IJC and the Philly Fed, with the CBRT, SARB and next chapter of the PM Draghi saga to unfod as well.
