  • The $368B in total sales (including $23B TIPS, $30B FRN) will mark the highest amount since October 2021 ($357B).
  • This comes following relatively strong coupon auctions in March, in which 5 (of 7) sales traded through - each receiving a positive reading on MNI’s Relative Strength Indicator.
  • Sale amounts are expected to peak in May’s refunding month, with Treasury indicating earlier this year that the Feb-Apr quarter was anticipated to be the last for auction upsizing.
  • MNI’s Treasury / Bill issuance calendar is regularly updated at this link.
