Vote of confidence in Conte today... consensus seems to be he'll get another turn with Renzi's Italia Viva votes made up by another party...or another PM gets the gig...anyone calling snap election down the track? Seems unlikely but the risk to btp/bund (EURJPY by default)

Lots of talk that the back up in UST yield has impacted risk in markets. I disagree that its all that bad, and will not increase prospect of YCC, but given frothy markets lower real (bad) real yields and USD rally could see markets de-risk - https://t.co/3LnBhj6IXK #trading #fx

Nothing too sinister in the interbank FX open this morning, I suspect equity index futures open down smalls. Here's our opening calls based off US trade..a bit of weakness seen but nothing that will hurt too greatly...Hedge because you can and not because you're forced too? https://t.co/FORwcigz46

A bit of talk that US Treasuries are supporting the DXY here..I've looked at USTs and adjusted for 3-month USDJPY (white) and USDEUR (blue) hedging costs, to get the hedged nominal yield ...no real signs of influence even though hedging flows are key. https://t.co/oWzSG0IBQT

EURJPY (blue/inverted), vs BTP/Bund spread....if you think the BTP yield widens vs German bunds then EURJPY shorts seem the obvious play in FX #fx #trading https://t.co/uOYSuIMi89
