US sells USD 105bln of 4-wk bills at high-rate 3.630%, B/C 2.86x; sells USD 95bln of 8-wk bills at high-rate 3.635%, B/C 2.87x.

The US Treasury's auction results show strong demand for both 4-week and 8-week bills, indicated by bid-to-cover ratios above 2.8x. The high yields at 3.630% and 3.635%, respectively, suggest that the market is pricing in a higher rate environment, reflecting investor appetite for short-term securities amidst ongoing monetary policy dynamics. This strong demand could signal confidence in the Treasury's issuance strategy and may influence short-term rate expectations going forward.
