Next week the US Treasury sells 2s, 5s and 7s

Yesterday’s soft 20-year auction and the resulting rout in equities has everyone watching bonds a bit more closely.

The front end of the curve is more-sensitive to the Fed and less sensitive to government debt but given the circumstances, next week’s slate will still be watched closely:

• Tuesday, $69 billion of 2s
• Wednesday $70 billion of 5s
• Thursday $44 billion of 7s

The next sales of longer-dated debt will be 10s on June 11 and 30s on June 12.
