GILT AUCTION RESULTS: Softish 5-year gilt auction (but not terrible)
Feb-04 10:09
The lowest accepted price (LAP) a little below the pre-auction mid-price on the secondary market there. However, the 4.375% Mar-30 gilt has shrugged off the disappointment and is trading higher now.
- There was quite a concession for the auction with the price falling from above 100.46 in the 5-minutes ahead of the auction cut off window. We are still trading notably below that level and closer to the average auction price at writing.
- Not the strongest auction but still a decent volume of demand (bid to cover in excess of 3x at 3.05x).
- Weakness seen in gilt futures going into the bidding window closing too (albeit there was some downside moves in Bunds concurrently). In gilt futures we were around 92.65 5 minutes before the auction close, hit a low of 92.490 and are now back at 92.560 at writing.
