Without any notable econ data on tap, bonds were left to their own devices on Wednesday. This initially involved moderate overnight weakness and mostly sideways trading during domestic hours. From a calendar standpoint, the 30yr bond auction was the lone tradable event. While it helped a bit at first, bonds were soon right back where they started. In hindsight, it was a forgettable, holding pattern type of day ahead of more relevant data on Thursday morning.
