[MARKET ANALYSIS] T-note futures struggle for direction after yesterday's choppy performance and post-FOMC recovery
Newsquawk Staff ·
USTs: +0.5 ticks
- Lacks direction following the prior day's choppy performance and post-FOMC rebound, with demand also contained ahead of more supply, including a 7-year note auction.
Bunds: -4 ticks
- Trades little changed in the absence of any major fresh catalysts from the bloc and after the latest ECB rhetoric provided little to shift the dial.
JGBs: -14 ticks
- Gave back some of the prior day's gains but with downside stemmed amid a quiet data calendar and somewhat soured risk sentiment.
What it means
The T-note futures are currently struggling for direction following a choppy session and a rebound post-FOMC meeting, suggesting that market participants are cautious ahead of upcoming supply, including a 7-year note auction. Meanwhile, Bunds remain stable without significant influences from the ECB, while JGBs have given back some gains as risk sentiment shifts. Overall, this indicates a wait-and-see approach as the market assesses upcoming events and supply dynamics.
