-China 10-year yield up 5 bp's today {GCNY10YR Index} as they talk large fiscal stimulus and supporting the property market . A weekly close above 2.06% would be an outside week and suggest an extension towards 2.26%
The 2-year yield stays suppressed {GCNY2YR Index} leading to a steepening of the 2's 10's curve overnight {GCNY10YR Index-GCNYYR Index}. Suggests that this may take some time to work if at all?

All its bids whether they be geopolitical seemed doomed to fail. While we did not get a higher level on the week on WTI we did on Brent {CO1 Comdty} and could see a bearish outside week on a close below $71.52
