(Bloomberg) -- Net UST issuance could begin increasing significantly in October, creating upward pressure on yields, Wells Fargo strategist Boris Rjavinski says in note Thursday.
- Net issuance projected to increase in FY2018 to $855b from $544b, according to primary dealer survey; outstanding marketable UST debt may approach $15t
- “Relatively modest” increase is seen in long-term UST yields, as short and intermediate sector may absorb most of increased borrowing needs amid growing demand for Treasuries outside the U.S.
- Yields in 1Y-5Y sector “should feel greater upward pressure” than 10Y-30Y
- Latest refunding announcements still “strengthen” view that U.S. curves should “flatten more than projected by forwards”
- More Fed hikes, SOMA reinvestment reductions, extension into longer maturities by foreign buyers could also lead to flatter curves in 2018
