Christmas


3 days to go to the big day but the next time we speak, Christmas and Boxing Day will have passed and hopefully you will be well rested and re-energised to wind down 2023. Same outcome in the T-bill auction this week. No changes in the bidding behavior as the maturities continue to determine demand, interest remains heavily skewed to the 91D T-bill and the market continues to push for higher yields across all three T-bills. Below is a snapshot of what is at play within the secondary market for your consideration. Happy hunting and wishing you the very best this Christmas period!
