BrokerTec US Treasury ADV was US$108.2 billion, rising 18 per cent from March and 18 per cent YoY.
John Edwards, global head of BrokerTec, CME Group, comments: “Market participants continue to monitor the risk associated with the change in economic conditions, inflation expectations and U.S. Treasury issuance in anticipation of FOMC actions for the rest of the year.”
Erik Norland, chief economist, CME Group, adds: “Continued strong growth in employment and higher than expected inflation numbers helped to stave off expectations of a Fed interest rate cut, pushing bond yields higher."
