Back Near Best Levels After Solid Auction Results
2 Hours, 13 Min ago
For those who’d been watching bond markets on Friday’s half day, it was perhaps slightly disconcerting to see a week’s worth of gains quickly erased. And while there was no guarantee that “whatever happens on the Friday after Thanksgiving can easily UN-happen the following week,” here we are back in last Wednesday’s range with help from a merely decent 5yr Treasury auction. Incidentally, last Wednesday’s range saw bonds near their best levels in 2 months.
