Another bad Treasury auction today, showing the sharp drop in yields the past several months is starting to turn off investors.
Treasury sold $35 billion of 5-year notes at a yield of 1.615%, compared with the 1.587% the market expected. The bid-to-cover ratio was 2.59, compared with the average of 2.81 from the previous four sales. The indirect bid, a proxy for foreign interest, was 37.6%, compared to the average 40.4%.
This is two poor auctions in a row.
Bond prices hit session lows after the auction, and investors are now increasingly nervous about tomorrow’s 7-year sale.
The 10-year Treasury yield has jumped to 3.02%. It was 2.86% early yesterday.
