At first it was. The 3-Month Bills were added after I started my post. My original post was much more humorous. 2009-06-18 12:11:01

Something else to make you go hmm....did we ever get a date on those bonds? I'm sure the 134 billion had interest that wasnt paid yet....165 could cover the interest....

Timmy staying away from selling into the 10 and 30. Let's see how much he ends up flattening the curve.

Yes, this seems like a convenient amount for a 1 week timeframe, especially right after it was announced the Italian seizures were a fraud. These guys are professional liars, but sometimes the tell is there right in front of us. 2009-06-18 12:30:45

The primary dealers must be stuffed to the gills with treasuries already. They have to sell them to get the money they will need to buy next week's allotment. And selling them damages the value of the treasuries that they retain.... Or they could sell other assets... like floating tankers full of oil... or stocks... Get ready for a distribution of assets as the primary dealers raise cash. The FED may have to step up coupon passes and POMO to help them raise cash. 2009-06-18 12:37:06

Wow! If this is in addition to the regular auctions we should see a very big spike in yields short term even beyond today.

Wait, the Treasury is peddling more bonds than the entire country of the U.K. owns?

This is going to end badly...How many buyers are left out there? How does the 10 year not sky rocket above 4%, unless the plan is to tank equities and scare the market back into bonds. Even then how can Ben and Timmy be assured that people won't just take their money and go home. Bonds are not a safe bet anymore at least to me. Last modified:

T's ARE being gamed today. Not as bad as it was a week or so ago, but correlations pop up between T's and FX just about every time the rate declines. ---------- It's justifiably immoral to try to deal in a moral fashion with an immoral entity.

I think I did a dumb thing a couple of weeks ago when I did Treasury Direct for a good 5-figure amount, for 13 weeks.... at about 0.15%. Now I'm stuck til Sept. I have a couple of good solid locally owned banks (and a couple of CU's also) that offer a "no penalty 1-year CD" that pays about 2%, FDIC ins., and you can withdraw all the money once it's been in there 30 days, no penalty. I don't see much difference between this and T-bills as far as safety, and ******, for an extra 1.85%! Screw Timmeh and his T-bills. This ties in with Gen's prediction that you need to have ready cash when and if good assets get puked up at rock bottom prices...just cash in the CD's and go shopping for them! ---------- " polish a turd; it's still a turd..." -Peanut (the Woozle) 2009-06-18 13:27:07
