USTs: +2.5 ticks

  • Marginally rebounded from the prior day's lows after retreating amid haven outflows as markets remained cautiously optimistic about a resolution in the Middle East, while there were mixed reports regarding an Israel-Lebanon ceasefire and a US-Iran ceasefire extension.

Bunds: +8 ticks

  • Trades rangebound but are off the prior day's lows, while prices have largely ignored the recent slew of ECB rhetoric and reports that officials are said to be leaning towards an April rate hold.

JGBs: ticks

  • Slightly trickled lower after failing to sustain the 130.00 level and ahead of today's scheduled enhanced liquidity supply of longer-dated JGBs.
Context

While the rebound is slight, it indicates a potential stabilization in haven demand, with the USTs rising slightly along with Bunds, despite mixed news on ceasefires. This fleeting optimism might influence the bond market's outlook as traders assess the interplay between geopolitical tensions and central bank policies.
