Aug-06 01:22

The latest ACGB Mar-36 auction saw strong demand, with the weighted average yield coming in 0.21bps through prevailing mid-yields, according to Yieldbroker, continuing the trend of firm pricing at recent ACGB auctions.

  • However, the cover ratio collapsed to 3.3111x from 4.45x.
  • As highlighted in our preview, bidding at today’s auction faced an outright yield that was 20bps lower than the previous auction level and about 30bps below the late February peak.
  • The 3/10 yield curve was around 30bps flatter than its recent high.
  • The recent improvement in global sentiment toward bonds didn’t appear to assist today’s bid dramatically.
  • There has been no material movement in XM or the cash line in post-auction trading.
