Two-Year Note Auction Attracts Modestly Above Average Demand

(RTTNews) - Kicking off this week's series of announcements of the results of its long-term securities auctions, the Treasury Department revealed Monday that this month's auction of $56 billion worth of two-year notes attracted modestly above average demand.

The two-year note auction drew a high yield of 0.769 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.55.

Last month, the Treasury sold $58 billion worth of two-year notes, drawing a high yield of 0.623 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.36.

The bid-to-cover ratio is a measure of demand that indicates the amount of bids for each dollar worth of securities being sold.

The ten previous two-year note auctions had an average bid-to-cover ratio of 2.51.

Looking ahead, the Treasury is due to announce the results of this month's auctions of $57 billion worth of five-year note and $56 billion worth of seven-year notes on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.
