US Treasuries Win Some Respite as Key 30-Year Auction Looms
- On Thursday, June 12, the U.S. Treasury plans to auction $22 billion worth of three-decade government bonds as part of its regular debt issuance schedule.
- Investor demand for 30-year U.S. debt has weakened due to rising yields and concerns over the country's growing $36 trillion debt and fiscal deficits.
- Last month's 30-year bond auction was poorly received with yields hitting a near two-decade high of 5.15%, reflecting higher term premiums amid fiscal uncertainty.
- Portfolio manager Jack McIntyre said these auctions serve as a test of market sentiment, while analyst Kathy Jones expects a steeper yield curve going forward.
- The auction results will indicate appetite for long-term debt and may reveal market concerns about U.S. fiscal policy and borrowing sustainability.
