US Treasuries rally, auction draws bidding bonanza
NEW YORK, June 23 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury debt prices added to early gains on Wednesday after an auction of $25 billion in new U.S. government debt drew huge demand from indirect bidders, including foreign central banks.
The two-year notes went at a lower-than-expected yield of 2.785 percent and drew bids for 2.17 times the amount on offer, below the hefty 2.32 achieved at last month's auction but still above the 1.90 average of 2003.
Indirect bidders, which include customers of primary dealers and foreign central banks, picked up a whopping 59 percent of the issue, or $14.74 billion. That was well above April's 40.4 percent and should help ease concerns that central banks are cutting back purchases of U.S. debt.
Primary dealers took just $9.23 billion of the issue.
The current two-year note <US2YT=RR> was 3/32 firmer in price, lowering its yield to 2.73 percent from 2.78 percent late Tuesday. When-issued yields on the new notes had fallen through the morning to stand around 2.795 percent just before the auction announcement.
