The AAA credit rating of the US appears to be a fading question. Nonetheless, MBS have come off their recent peak down from 98-24 to 98-21. Nothing major... So far, the 5 yr note hasn't moved more than 2 ticks since the auction. Very flat for this type of event, indicating the results very much in line with expectations.
Stay tuned for more info very shortly....
