Longer dates treasury yields fell on GDP numbers. 10Y yield fell 4.1bps, while the 2Y yield finished near flat. USD Index flat, and Bitcoin up a touch. In Asia, Chinese blue chips stocks the Shenzhen fell 0.22% and Hong Kong's Hang Seng 1.77%, finding little support from Beijing's latest easing step.
