DJ US 30-YEAR BONDS: 4.530%; 51.17% At High

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--The U.S. Treasury awarded $14.00 billion in 30-year bonds at Thursday's auction at a high rate of 4.530%.

The Treasury received bids totaling $28.72 billion and accepted $14.00 billion, including $38.78 million of noncompetitive tenders, up from $32.34 million in noncompetitive tenders accepted at the previous 30-year bond auction on Aug. 9, 2001.

The Treasury awarded $100.00 million of the bonds to foreign and international monetary authority accounts on a noncompetitive bidding basis.

The bid-to-cover ratio, an indication of demand, was 2.05, Treasury said.

Tenders submitted at the high yield were allotted 51.17%.

The dollar price was 99.510492 and the coupon rate was set at 4.500%, or 4 1/2%.

The median rate was 4.490%; that is, 50% of the amount of accepted competitive bids were tendered at or below that rate.
