US sells 20-year bonds at 2.396% vs 2.396% WI

  • Results of the $19 billion 20-year auction
  • Highest yield since the 20-year was re-introduced (seven auctions)
  • Prior was 2.210%
  • Bid to cover vs 2.48 prior

Six of the seven auctions since the reintroduction of the 20-year have tailed but not this one, which was exactly where the market expected. That will add to the theme that bonds are taking a pause after the big run-up in yields. We'll wait for more data and the March FOMC decision.
