미 재무부 sold 3-month Bills at a top yield of 3.595% and 6-month Bills at 3.65%, with B/Cs of 3.08x and 2.77x respectively, showing healthy demand. The fact that the 6-month yield is higher than the 3-month and the high bid cover ratios reflect expectations of sustained high short-term rates or further increases. This provides yield improvement for money market and short-term bond managers, while raising discount rates and weighing on growth stocks and long-duration assets. It also reinforces demand for the dollar and safe assets and is likely to directly affect corporate short-term funding costs.
