the last Bond auction of 2020---they came, they bought.
All cheer the Long Bond.
And Thank You Madame Lagarde for the Christmas present.
It had been a while since the US had a blockbuster auction, especially after two mediocre treasury sales earlier this year. Today's 30Y was just the stellar auction the bond market needed.
With $24BN in 30Y paper for sale, down from last month's record $27BN, demand was blistering perhaps in light of the shaky equity market, and the high yield of 1.665% stopped through the 1.684% When Issued by 1.9bps, the biggest stop through since July 's 2.7bps.
The bid to cover of 2.481 was not only well above the 2.292 from November, but the highest since July.
The internals were also stellar, with Indirects jumping to 65.9% from 61.9% last month and the highest since July. And with Directs taking down 16.8% or the most since February, Dealers were left holding just 17.4% of the auction, the second lowest on record and only the 15.5% last December was a lower Dealer takedown.

move today above previous day high very bullish for me as we hade yesterday higher high and lower low and very weak close at the lows of the day. so as currently weekly trading range too tight. only 107 pips. normal would be close to 160-190 pips.
so close today above previous day high could be very bullish.
immidiate target for tommrow 1,2177 previous week high. which is also yearly high. if this taken out then next target quickly 50 pips higher. all this possible before week is over.
if trades below 1,2055 then totally new picture.

In a wide-ranging interview in the New York Times, Melinda Gates made the following remarkable statement: “What did surprise us is we hadn’t really thought through the economic impacts.” A cynic might observe that one is disinclined to think much about matters than do not affect one personally.
It’s a maddening statement, to be sure, as if “economics” is somehow a peripheral concern to the rest of human life and public health. The larger context of the interview reveals the statement to be even more confused. She is somehow under the impression that it is the pandemic and not the lockdowns that are the cause of the economic devastation that includes perhaps 30% of restaurants going under, among many other terrible effects.
She doesn’t say that outright but, like many articles in the mainstream press over this year, she very carefully crafts her words to avoid the crucial subject of lockdowns as the primary cause of economic disaster. It’s possible that she actually believes this virus is what tanked the world economy on its own but that is a completely unsustainable proposition.

Second, the longer-term structural challenges require fiscal policy. The ECB can ensure orderly financial markets, offer sufficient liquidity, and keep interest rate expectations low. It is a supporting, not a leading, role."

Ahead of the dinner, Mr Johnson had tweeted that the UK would “prosper mightily as an independent nation” irrespective of whether the talks succeeded or failed. Earlier on Wednesday, he set out his red lines to the House of Commons, centred around his familiar themes of sovereignty and regulatory freedom.
Mr Johnson told MPs that the EU wanted to leave Britain as “the only country in the world not to have sovereign control over its own fishing waters”.
He also alleged that Brussels wanted to “automatically have the right to punish us and retaliate” if the UK deviated from future EU rules in areas such as labour standards and environmental policy.

The commission’s decision to treat their British guest to a seafood-heavy menu featuring a starter of scallops and a main course of turbot with mashed potato raised some eyebrows in Brussels, with the two sides sparring over the fate of the €650m of fish that EU boats catch in UK waters every year.
One particularly thorny issue is the fate of centuries-old EU rights in the waters close to the British coast, where scallops are one of the most lucrative catches. Under a no-deal Brexit, scallop exports to the EU would be subject to a 20 per cent tariff.

vaccine
The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) won't require its health care employees to take the upcoming COVID-19 vaccine, which the medical provider expects to begin offering as soon as this month, according to PennLive.
The reason are several-fold, according to UPMC medical director of infection prevention and epidemiology, Dr. Graham Snyder. For starters, general uncertainty over the vaccine. And while the $21 billion nonprofit organization (which employs 89,000 people) has a mandatory flu vaccination policy, it's "based on decades of experience with the influenza vaccine," according to Snyder.
But there’s no comparable data for a COVID-19 vaccine, or on whether a mandate is the best way to get large numbers of people to become vaccinated, Snyder said on Tuesday.
The first COVID-19 vaccine, from Pfizer, is expected to soon receive emergency approval. A second vaccine, from Moderna, is also expected to soon receive emergency approval. Distribution of at least one vaccine is expected to begin this month.
Snyder said UPMC is “very excited about the preliminary information we have about how safe the vaccine is and how it will work.”
Still, he said UPMC will conduct its own review of the vaccines before injecting any of its employees. -PennLive
"Until we learn more and build our own experience with this vaccine, plus, until we see the uptake of vaccine in our communities, and have an understanding about the role that vaccination has in ending this pandemic, it’s not the right thing to make it mandatory," said Snyder - who added that UPMC's independent review won't slow down their plans to distribute the vaxx.
