Description:
We investigate the mechanism by which price discovery takes place within the futures market for U.S Treasury securities. Specifically, given the strong theoretical linkage between the U.S. Treasury cash and futures markets, we compare how orderflow contributes to price discovery as well as analyze how and when information flows from one market to the other.

Our findings provide new evidence on the extent to which price discovery happens away from a primary market
