Markets moved to a risk-off posture on Thursday after problems surfaced
in a major Portuguese bank. The issues triggered strong intra-Eurozone
flows and gave the USD a flight-to-safety bid. The EURUSD continues has
retested the 1.3600 line.
Yields in prime Eurozone fixed income
markets are broadly lower. Yields on the European
periphery are higher, especially in Portugal. The German 10-yr bund is
1.21%, -2bp.
The U.K.10-yr gilt yield is
2.63% -4bp. Odds still favor a +25bp BOE short-term rate hike by
yearend.
U.S.10-yr yield is 2.52%, -6bp.
Equities closed mixed in the
Far East. Bourses in Europe are ending lower. U.S. shares are weaker.
The heat map color scheme
of interest rates reflects yields. This aligns all the colors in the
chart to reflect risk-on (green) and risk-off(red).

STOX front running the Obvious?
Those Primary Dealers took 46+% of the 10s yesterday...covered their costs and got some nice "Collateral" for da Books.
sofar only approx 0.75% slide in US stox

Risk On/Off Heat Map: Reply
10-yr 2.578% -4bp
Its a long way to 2.50% would take a serious slide in shares to get there.

seems like stox have some ways left to go yet to qualify as serious slide

What a difference a week makes. Last Thursday (after the 288K increase in NFP), the 10-yr closed at 2.650%. Today its been testing 2.50% off an on.
The life of a bond trader can be interesting.

Banco Espirito Sancto (BES) worries certainly a reason why Portuguese yields are higher and also a weight om the prices for other peripheral bonds this week. They are giving prime government bonds a bid.
This raises doubts about the wisdom of recent moves out of the prime credits in the EZ to the higher yielders? They had higher yields for a reason!
BES fueling the risk-off trade today. See story below.
Frankly I don't see how this can be EUR positive? Any thoughts?
