GILT AUCTION RESULTS: Another strong 3-year gilt auction

Jul-29 09:07
  • Another strong 3-year gilt auction for the 4.375% Mar-28 gilt.
  • The tail of 0.2bp was a little wider than the previous auction's 0.1bp but still very tight while the lowest accepted price (LAP) of 101.057 is higher than any other time of the day (excluding the first 10 minutes of trading).
  • The price of the 4.375% Mar-28 gilt is still trading below that of the LAP at the time of writing but is moving higher. Gilt futures have shown little movement despite the strong result.
