Today's 7yr Treasury auction was one of the only actionable items on today's calendar. It came out much weaker than expected and, for a moment, it looked like bonds might care. 10 minutes later and buyers had steamrolled through the brief selling pressure ultimately carrying yields to new lows before the 3pm close. The gains reinforce the range-bound trading themes of the week with yesterday erring toward the weaker levels and today taking things back in the other direction. MBS didn't manage to make intraday gains at the pace suggested by Treasuries as ultra light liquidity led to a constant questioning of reality. More on that in today's video.
