Surge of bond deals lifts credit risk premiums

Multi-billion dollar debt sales from AIG and Citigroup led a sudden wave of US bond deals last week that lifted corporate credit risk premiums across the market – in contrast to an improving picture in Europe.

However, these market moves mask a rapidly worsening picture for European economies and credit markets versus the US, which some analysts see as a bigger trend that will gather pace.

it will do when they have their hedge away.....i don't know what size is going through in the underlying but it's big and the futurtes is thin hence the big moves.
 
Hedge done yet? Limited volume in bor so far. I took sep-dec overnight aiming to exit somewhere on the other side of zero, maybe helped by ZEW...

First of all i'm talking about eurodollar dec8 ... simply

Today greater ppi than expected... some credit crisis ... last week cpi high
But.... moves up !! i need help in fondamentals...maybe . Anyone ??

Heelp
 
My interpretation: It went up following treasuries which in turn were a safe haven bid with stocks crashing and US economy looking rubbish. Also some stops went off. And it also went up because it didn't go down.

Suggest ignoring fundamentals if you want to trade short term... Understand them by all means to trade figures but weird things move these markets.
 
the Dec contract has been out of line with U08 and M09 for a while now, this isn't a recent phenomena; look at the Z8U9 spread, it now trading @ -2.5, right out of joint with the rest of the curve.

As for why, it might just be a seasonal effect, compunded by the added uncertainty in these markets. Also remember that the U8 contract has now gone quarter tick, which may well change the dynamics.
 
the original question was for euribor when it started to get whacked on Friday and ran over into the start of this week. think about what happens in December and then you'll have your answer as to what is causing the pressure.
