Treasury yields are 3-4 bps higher across the curve to start the week.

Middle East negotiations seem to be progressing, even with President Trump threatening to strike Iran if Hezbollah is not brought under control. Oil continues its push lower, a further sign of progress in these negotiations in Switzerland. Brent crude dropped below $79 a barrel for the first time since the end of February. Equity futures show a slightly positive opening to the week. Everybody is now turning to Thursday’s PCE inflation reading to get a clearer picture of the chances of a rate hike later this year.
