AUSSIE BONDS: Solid Digestion Of Apr-37 Supply But With Less Demand

Jun-03 01:26

The latest ACGB April 2037 auction attracted solid demand, with the weighted average yield printing 0.45bps through prevailing mid-yields, according to Yieldbroker — continuing the recent trend of firm pricing across ACGB auctions.

  • However, the cover ratio fell sharply to 1.9750x from 4.6400x at the previous auction, indicating less investor participation. This was further supported by a notable increase in the number of successful bidders.
  • As noted in our preview, the outright yield was roughly at the same level as the previous auction but remained about 40bps below the November 2024 peak.
  • The 3/10 yield curve was also around the same level as the previous auction but sat around 20bps below its recent high.
  • The reduction in bidding strength may also have reflected the deterioration in investor sentiment toward longer-dated global bonds since the prior auction in early May.
  • In early post-auction trading, both XM futures and the bond line are little changed.
