T-Bills yields have been on a roller-coaster ride recently.
From as high as 4.07% in September 2023.
T-Bills yields then dropped as low as 3.54% in early Feb.
Since then – T-Bills yields have started to stabilise around the 3.80% range.
From 3.78% the previous auction, up to 3.80% this auction.
However – demand for T-Bills has risen to record highs for all of 2023/2024, so the fact that T-Bills yields did not drop materially is interesting.
So I wanted to take a look at the numbers, to understand what’s driving the move in T-Bills yields?
