The Eurodollar future is the more liquid market, but as the anchor of the default-free U.S. Treasury yield curve, the T-bill rate is one of the fundamental financial variables in our economy. This article looks at the behavior of the TED spread from minute to minute, to determine whether the two futures markets are cointegrated (they are) and which way information flows.
