US TSYS/SUPPLY
US TSYS/SUPPLY: *** Traders will be interested to see the U.S. and foreign
demand at at next Wednesday's 11:30 a.m. ET $24 billion 3-year note auction and
the $20 billion 10-year note reopening also that day, which follows a Monday
Columbus Day holiday and a bill-dominated auction schedule Tuesday. Thursday
then brings a $12 billion 30-year bond reopening auction at the usual 1pm time.
- "In light of the recent backup in yields, our outlook for the auction process
is constructive and we would come out of the event long in Treasuries,
especially if any supply concession entails a breach of the 2.40% yield-level in
10-year notes," said BMO's Ian Lyngen. "That is a departure from our typical
assumption that a compressed auction schedule will limit the set-up, and make
underwriting the Treasury Department's issuance more dubious."
- Meanwhile Japanese or Asian buyers of Treasuries may want to see if the market
can stabilize next week before they would buy, said some observers. Some
Japanese accounts like to buy around the 2.40% 10-year note, and did buy as the
yield briefly hit 2.402% at 10:04 a.m. ET Friday, before backing off, said
traders. The yield is at 2.364% currently.
