Blistering Demand For 2 Year Paper Send Entire Curve Tighter
If the sellside community was expected to side with the Fed and sell Treasury paper, especially near maturities, then today’s 2 Year auction, which just priced at a hot 0.542%, or 1.1 bps through the 0.553% When Issued, indicated more than ample demand for Treasury paper.

Another Keynesian Debt Boondoggle: How Brussels Plans To Turn $26 Billion Into $390 Billion
The desperation and fraud of the Keynesian policy apparatus gets more stunning by the day. Apparently, the pettifoggers in Brussels will soon be announcing a new $400 billion bazooka to blast the euro-economy out of its lethargy. This massive new “stimulus” is supposed to spur all manner of infrastructure and private investment that is purportedly bottled-up for want of […]
