New spending is likely to be enacted sooner than never on new defen s e projects to improve collective security in Europe and make up for a US potential withdrawal. The EU borrowing capacity will play a role in the new defense set-up. We therefore go short EU Dec 3 4 ( EU000A3K4ES4 ) against EU Dec30 ( EU000A3LNF05 ) and EU Oct54 ( EU000A3K4EY2 ) on a risk-weighted basis, for the next 6 months, at -2 4. 5bp . With a carry-rolldown we estimate at -1.4 bp / month on the position , w e stop losses at -35bp.
