| 09:55 EDT | | | Euro$ interest rate options: a bearish package traded

Sources also reported some more "conditional steepeners" via options, buying 6k in Short Mar 2013 90/92 put spreads vsa a sale of Green Mar 2013 82/87 put spreads."

| 09:45 EDT | | | Fed Chairman Bernanke didn't address policy or the economy
Fed Chairman Bernanke didn't address policy or the economy in his prepared remarks. He's speaking at a bank structure conference, and focused on monitoring of the financial system. Analysts didn't believe this was a likely venue for policy revelations, and indeed it was not. He indicated there are still important risks in short term funding markets, including the response to the failure of a broker-dealer or other major borrower. He warned the money markets, which are still vulnerable to "runs." There will be Q&A, but again the Fed chief is not likely to spill any policy beans. |

| 07:35 EDT | | | FX Action: U.S. name triggered stops in USD-JPY
FX Action: U.S. name triggered stops in USD-JPY into the N.Y. open on the successful breach of 101.50 barriers. London dealing desks tipped large stops at 101.55 and 101.60 to fuel highs over 101.70. EUR-JPY extended its rally to fresh three year highs over 132.20 on the flows, while a strong Middle Eastern account bid was reportedly behind EUR-USD's rebound back over 1.3000. The yen sell-off has gained traction into the G7 interestingly. BoJ's Kuroda said he will tell the G7 that easing in April was for domestic purposes and it is not targeting FX rates. Overnight, South Korea raised fresh concerns over yen weakness, while U.S. Treasury Secretary Lew said Japan must respect FX rules as it seeks growth. |
