Demand for US Treasury auctions seen weakening near-term – TDS

Analysts from Toronto-Dominion Securities are noting that demand for US Treasuries in an issuance auction was much softer than usual, and near-term rates could suffer.

Softer US Auctions: Canary in the Coal Mine?

This week's 3s, 10s, and 30s Treasury auction series was met with weaker demand, with all three auctions tailing relative to 1pm levels. Such an occurrence is relatively rare, with just 11% of auction series since 2012 showing all three auctions tailing.

This afternoon's weak 30y auction (which tailed 3.7bp) also showed softening end-user demand, with dealers having to take 18% of the auction... the recent drop in end-user demand is concerning as dealer capacity to backstop auctions remains lower due to limited balance sheet availability.

With investor conviction remaining extremely low as the market is caught between still-firm domestic fundamentals and geopolitical risk, the 30y auction appears to have further destabilized sentiment. Treasury is likely to continue increasing auction sizes in coming months, bringing more 10y equivalent duration to market next year.

We expect higher nominal and real rates to continue weighing on economic growth momentum, leading rates lower by year-end and in 2024. In the near-term, however, worries about a lack of demand for Treasuries could allow rates to re-test recent highs, with 10s potentially making a run at the 5% mark.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
