I'm not sure I understand the question, but I'll take it at face value. The US is borrowing $35 billion in this auction. In two years, most likely the US will just borrow it again, plus whatever...

It's sure what I would do. I don't think I'd have much choice.

This probably goes without saying but I'll say it anyway: there should be a control period. For example, assuming there is a...

Final Update auction results 2008-2011

Here's the final update, all non TIPS coupon auction results from 2008 to 2011. The dates are all proofread, the numbers are not. The dates are what are most important IMO.

I'll do it. The two year note auction is not the same week as the 3/10/30. I'm thinking you want that one because it corresponds to ZT?

Ok, but it will take awhile, and I'm trading now. I'll work on it this evening. On another topic, if you think floor pivots give good entry levels, I'll definitely take a look at them.

Bid to cover was high. The fact that the dealers were aggressive suggests that they were very short going into the auction. Consistent w/ my speculation that Fed was buying a lot of Notes prior to...

The market went up solidly after the auction. IMO that is what is "supposed" to happen. See previous post about dealers moving the market where they need it to go. So results were as expected.

I may be the only floor trader who never used pivot points. Writing them on a blank trading card was too much like work :-). I'm probably the most successful totally unprepared trader in the...

Good auction results.

There was huge buying in ZN around the 120 01 to 120 005 level at a time when I would have expected to see mostly selling (pre-hedging). Maybe QE before the auction? Consistent with the strong...

Refunding auctions start today

3 yr, 10 yr, and 30 yr auctions this week. I expect market to be under pressure until Thursday or Friday. Short term lows often made on these auctions, especially the 3/10/30 auctions.
