Stellar 5Y Auction Sees Surge In Foreign Demand, Record Low Dealer Takedown
Another day, and another stellar Treasury auction.
After yesterday's blockbuster 2Y auction, moments ago the Treasury sold $55 billion in 5Y paper in what can again only be described as a stellar sale.
The high yield of 1.533% was well above last month's 1.263% and the highest since Dec 2019, but it was also 1.4bps below the When Issued 1.547%, which followed two disappointing tailing auctions. The Bid to Cover confirmed the buyside demand for today's paper, coming at 2.50, well above last month's 2.41 and the six-auction average of 2.40.
But like yesterday, it was the internals that were most notable, with Indirect, i.e., foreign, demand surging from an already elevated 65.7% in December to 68.72%, the highest since Sept 2017.
And unlike yesterday, Directs were also solid at 16.5%, up from 14.3% in December if below the recent average of 17.2%. This meant that Dealers got 14.8% of the final allotment, the lowest on record, and perhaps a sign that dealers are getting ready for QT - where they can't flip any new issuance right back to the Fed - and are reducing their purchases at auction.
Overall, this was another stellar auction which saw near record foreign demand. Coming at a time when everyone is petrified that the Fed's rate hikes will keep going up, up, up in the process hammering Treasury yields, it appears that at least someone is not freaking out and is buying up whatever the Treasury has to sell.
Furthermore, coming ahead of tomorrow's FOMC meeting when many expect Powell to emerge as extra hawkish, today's super strong auction was rather remarkable.
In response to the blockbuster auction, the 10Y yield barely budged perhaps due to the already sharp drop in yields due to today's flight to safety.

Billionaire Leon Black Accuses Josh Harris of Trying to Destroy Him
Leon Black escalated his fight against former business partner Josh Harris, naming him as a defendant in a lawsuit that lays bare the bitter battle for control of Apollo Global Management Inc. last year.
The expanded allegations, in an amended complaint on Monday, add to a lawsuit initially brought in October against former Russian model Guzel Ganieva. The revised claim portrays the drama within the storied New York investment firm as a Shakespearean tragedy, accusing Harris, a co-founder of the firm, of organizing a coup to overthrow Black and become the chief executive officer of Apollo.
Black, 70, first directly accused Harris last week of engaging in a smear campaign to overthrow him as part of the ongoing litigation with Ganieva -- an assertion Harris denies and labeled as absurd.
“While the amended complaint made for an interesting read, it changes nothing: These allegations are desperate and completely false,” a representative for Harris said in a statement Monday. It added that Harris has never met or spoken with Ganieva or her representatives and “had no involvement of any kind” in the filing of her claims.

U.S. clears second-largest ever loan of oil from strategic reserve
The U.S. Department of Energy announced the loan of 13.4 million barrels of crude oil from its strategic reserve as part of a renewed effort by the Biden administration to contain oil prices that have surged to their highest level since 2014.
The awards to seven companies, part of a previously announced move, mark the second-largest exchange of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve ever, and bring the total amount of oil released from the cache to nearly 40 million barrels, according to the Energy Department.
The awards are a part of a plan announced in November by President Joe Biden to release 50 million barrels from the SPR in a move coordinated with India, Japan, South Korea and China that marked an unprecedented effort to reduce prices and ease OPEC’s stranglehold on supply.
U.S. crude prices are now higher than they were in October, when the Biden administration began touting plans to release the country’s emergency reserves. This year alone, benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices have gained more than 13 per cent as demand recovery has outpaced available supply.
Benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude rose 2.8 per cent to settle at US$85.60 a barrel. The average price of U.S. regular unleaded gasoline, which has risen for 10 consecutive days, was US$3.34 a gallon Monday, according to automotive club AAA.
The surge in fuel costs threatens the U.S. economic rebound and poses political risks for Biden’s presidency and the ability of Democrats to retain control of Congress in elections later this year. Last week, Biden pledged to continue efforts to lower oil prices noting the White House was “trying to increase oil supplies that are available.”
OPEC and its allies have been falling short of meeting monthly quotas that were part of a plan to boost production. Some of its members have endured setbacks from unrest that had disrupted output including Libya, Nigeria and Kazakhstan.
Prior to today’s award, the agency had granted over 8 million barrels of strategic reserve oil as part of the exchange program that had offered a total of 32 million. Awardees of this program are expected to return the barrels during 2022-2024. In a separate offer, the Biden Administration had sold 18.1 million barrels of SPR crude for delivery over February and March.
Awardees in the latest exchange round include Shell Trading US Co. (4.2 million barrels), Trafigura Trading LLC (3 million barrels), Phillips 66 Co. (2.3 million barrels), Macquarie Commodities Trading SA (2 million barrels), Chevron Corp. (0.885 million barrels), ExxonMobil Oil Corp. (0.515 million barrels,) and BP Products North America Inc. (0.5 million barrels).

just thinking earlier how no one expects anything tomorrow from the FOMC-which would be perfect time to do it.
Gonna hurt the ones who least can afford it-anyone still in it is fuggen insane.
There are so many things pointed at it plus the bond market continues to not get what it really wants fast enough-higher rates.
It's gone up quite a bit since start of year (in a historical context) but the shit pile is SO big it needs it faster.
dhey never gonna stop that.
sorry din't answer yer question (hate when dat habbens)
They have already taken the market down so I would suspect it drops to just below the low point on Monday-that all depends on what event "causes" it though.
The normies say to themselves "well it's not too much worse than monday" and continue to believe that it only goes up.
The amount of spin I have seen on HODL'ing is ridiculous.
It gonna be that or a cyber attack on the mechanics of the banking system.
Dhat would be far easier to pull off-at least the appearance of it.
Remember 2006 when they said that NoKo exploded it's first nuclear bomb?
markets did not budge-barely even reacted.
also have the end of the 30 day grace period for the continuing evergrande bond saga and that is thursday for the missed Dec. payments.
So it's pick 'em at this point

Pelosi Announces She Will Run for Reelection
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Tuesday she will seek reelection, ending speculation that she would retire as Democrats face the threat of losing control of Congress in the 2022 midterms.
“While we have made progress, much more needs to be done to improve people’s lives,” the 81-year-old Pelosi said in an online video. “This election is crucial. Nothing less is at stake than our democracy,” she added. By announcing she would seek a 19th term, Pelosi avoids becoming a lame duck in a year when Democrats are clinging to a fragile majority in the House and the party is under pressure to raise vast sums of money to defend control of Congress.
Her decision to remain in the chamber follows announcements by 29 House Democrats that they won’t seek reelection this year, compared to 13 Republicans as the GOP looks toward taking back the House.
The party that controls the White House typically loses seats in Congress in midterm elections, and Democrats are defending both chambers at a time when President Joe Biden’s approval rating has been slipping.
