Rather than positioning ahead of time, we would prefer to see ifthere isan overreaction to the release of the dealer survey to potentially fade, rather than position for what we see as a50-50 outcome as present. Our focus has been on 2s10s steepeners, so if2s10s flattens to the low 30bps or high 28bps this could be attractive entry level, or potentially fading acheapening of 20s on 10s20s30s –we would prefer to buy 20s on cheapening than sell on richening as afailure to take action now does not rule out future cuts.
