China 10-year treasury futures fall, tracking higher US Treasury yield

SHANGHAI: Chinese government bond futures prices fell on Monday, with 10-year treasury futures for September delivery, the most traded contract, falling more than 0.5% in afternoon trade.

Some traders attributed the falls in treasury futures prices to higher US Treasury yields after strong US nonfarm payrolls data on Friday and tighter liquidity conditions in Chinese domestic interbank markets.
