A sum of $24 billion in 10-year Treasury notes were sold today.  Buyers kept the U.S Treasury alive yet again.  The 2.00% coupon priced at a slight discount for a cumulative 2.02% yield to maturity.  The indirect bids were 38.9% and the direct bids came in at 17.9%.  What was interesting was the bid-to-cover coming in at 3.05, implying 200% more demand than supply in this auction.

The prior on the run 10_year was trading at 1.99% or so right around the auction results being posted and the range has been 1.96% to 2.00%.

A rate of 2,02% is still very low and the bid-to-cover was adequate here.  Still, it looks a tad higher in yield than what we have seen in the last 10 sessions.
