Buy UST 10Y, Targeting 1.60%, on Fed, Pattern: BNP Paribas

(Bloomberg) -- With 10Y yield having risen nearly 25bp this month, “it is time to go tactically long,” BNP strategists Timothy High and Daniel Totouom-Tangho say in note.
  • Reasons for the trade include:
    • Fed is on hold, market “seems to trade on a technical basis,” and moved from overbought a few weeks ago to oversold before April 27 FOMC statement
    • Market continued to sell off despite weakening economic data
    • Rates have fallen after 5 of last 6 FOMC meetings
  • Carry is 2.25bp/month, set stop at 2.05%
  • BNP also recommends buying 5Y UST matched-maturity swap spread vs selling 2Y UST matched-maturity swap spread at -16.25p, targeting -9bp, carry 0.5bp/month, stop at -19bp
