US TSYS: Repo/EFFR Rate Run: SOFR Set To Tick Up After Lull Last Week

US TSYS

Repo and effective Fed funds rates were little changed Friday (no data released Monday due to holiday). For Tuesday, SOFR is set to pick up 2bp to 4.83% due to "the settlement of the Treasury’s mid-month coupon auctions along with the regular Tuesday bill issues", per Wrightson ICAP - though on Wednesday they should subside again.
