FW: Fixed Income Daily Pulse - 15 November 2017

 

 

 

Good Evening,

 

Today’s trade recap by our trading desk:-

 

·         In the overnight market, USD bulls were halted as EUR rallies on the back of a strong German GDP number. UST yields resultantly tumbled as well, easing towards 2.34% at time of writing. Bond prices were much firmer in the market today but trades remained lackluster on the back of paper thin liquidity. Bidding interest across benchmarks remains strong nevertheless. On top of that, USDMYR saw a new year-to-date low today; at 4.1750 level.
