US set to sell 10-year notes at the highest yield since 2007

  • US to sell $35 billion in a 10-year reopening

The US will reopen the latest sale of 10s in an auction today and it's sure to feature the highest yield since 2007.

The cash market is trading at 4.29% and that's a pretty good idea of where this one will land. BMO thinks it could undershoot, which might weight on USD/JPY:

It’s going to be the highest yielding auction since 2007 which should ensure a decent backstop of dip-buying demand – especially considering we’ve begun to see more consistent evidence of the lagged influence of monetary policy. Despite the implications from larger issuance, the fact last month’s 10-year new issue stopped effectively on the screws with a >90% non-dealer award while clearing nearly 30 bp lower in yield than current levels gives us a reason to be encouraged heading into the event.
