Solid Demand Metrics For 30Y Supply

JGBS AUCTION

30-year supply sees solid demand metrics, with the low price meeting dealer expectations (which stood at 96.10, per the BBG poll), the cover ratio increasing to 3.181x from 3.003x in January and the tail shortening.

  • Today's auction result falls in line with last week’s 10-year supply, which bucked recent trends and showed solid demand metrics.
  • As highlighted in the MNI Preview, today’s auction took place with an outright yield that was 15bps higher than the early January offering. Moreover, the 2/30 yield curve was 15bps steeper and the 10/30 curve was 5bps steeper than the levels observed in early January.
  • JGB futures have strengthened slightly after the lunch break.
  • The 30-year JGB is unchanged after initially richening 1bp in post-auction trade.
