- UST Futures continue to hold onto gains following the heavy US data docket, which saw PCE come in as expected, limiting the move in USTs.
- Bund Futures oscillate around Thursday’s settlement price, as markets await EZ flash PMIs.
- JGB Futures trade flat, reversing earlier gains seen following the slightly cooler inflation print, as markets await the BoJ rate decision during the Tokyo lunch break.
