MBS ALERT: Bond Auction Demand Weak. Initial Rates Reaction Bad
By:
•
The Treasury just sold $16 billion 30 yr bonds...
High yield: 4.469%.
% Accepted at High Yield: 18.01%
Bid to cover: 2.26
The initial reaction to the relatively weak results has not been MBS friendly. The 10yr yield has risen to 3.52% and the FN 4.5 has fallen below 101-00.
While this reaction is "knee jerk" in nature, if prices dont rebound soon , lenders will reprice for the worse.
I do however expect a correction
