Context
The latest auction of 10-year notes saw a slightly higher yield compared to the previous auction, but the tail remained relatively tight at 0.7bps; this suggests continued demand for the notes despite rising yields. Notably, indirect bidders made up a substantial portion of the auction, which reflects healthy appetite among investors, potentially stabilizing yields in the near term. Overall, while the demand metrics are slightly mixed, they still point to a resilient interest in longer-duration assets as the market navigates current macro pressures.
