RESEARCH ROUNDUP: $34b UST 5Y Auction May Benefit From Valuation
(Bloomberg) -- Positives for auction at 1pm ET include outright yield and valuation on curve, cheapness on global scale; negatives include Fed posture, recent history of tails and sector’s volatility.
- BMO (Aaron Kohli)
- 5Y notes “are not really cheap enough” based on Fed posture, however auction liquidity and refunding month should bring in enough buying to avert a tail
- Positives include strong reception for yday’s 2Y, recent cheapening outright and on curve, cheapness on global scale
- Negatives include hawkish Fed, recent tendency for 5Y auctions to tail; also, yday’s stop through by 2Y may curb dealer bid today
- CRT (Ian Lyngen)
- “Apprehensive” based on “consistently weak receptions and the broader Fed-inspired bearishness”; however, auction should benefit from outright yield and oversold technical landscape
- Nomura (unsigned)
- Positives include outright yield and valuation on curve, as with 2Y yday; spreads vs G4 approaching wides; improved carry/roll profile after recent selloff
- Negatives include highest volatility on curve, recent gains for energy prices
