Forex - European Highlights Monday 02 February (Today) - Update

Bonds and Equities -
Core bonds largely treading water which is quite positive trade so far given the strong ends to last week. PMIs within expectations (final euro manufacturing PMI unrevised overall), albeit with a slightly firmer than consensus bounce in the UK version to 53 from 52.7 helping shorter dates underperform a bit on the day (GB-DE 5s +3.5bp). Overall though gilts still holding up solidly, especially at the long end, after the bullish breakout higher into month end
Club Med start the week on a firmer note, if slightly off the opening highs, with very flush cash flow (almost EUR60bn of coupon+redemption split between the two) a helpful factor this week. BTP future around +40 ticks.
Equities are generally modestly ahead.
