Fading French spillovers on AAA curves: long NETHER 2033 and EU 2034 against DBR 2034

French elections risk warranted some widening of spreads of EGB against Bund, to hedge against unexpected risk and reflecting a market liquidity premium, as much as a convenience yield (aka funding liquidity) increase. Results from the first round of French legislative parliamentary elections seem to support our baseline scenario and should help a tightening of the best rated curves in the EGB / SSA space. We go long EU and Nether against Bund at 90bp s . We target 75bps in a 3-month horizon. We stop at 98bps.
