What’s on the economic calendar
I’ve covered the bond market for 15 years and I can’t remember a Treasury auction that’s as highly anticipated as next week’s.
The US is sell $58B in 3-year notes on Tuesday and $38B in 10s on Wednesday. The latter is the one to watch.
Yields tracking higher and the blowout at last week’s 7-year sale have put an extra focus on 10s next week. The market will be very tentative heading into it and I suspect there will be a large concession and a nervous market. It’s easier to find buyers for 10s and rates are high, I expect demand will be good and it will calm nerves, but be ready for anything. Another auction like last week’s would definitely get the Fed’s attention.
