those Fed minutes have nothing whatsoever to do with the upcoming Treasury Auctions..., [note my sarcasm]... 5 Yr Notes and 10 Yr TIPS next week followed by a 20 Yr TIP the following week, that 20 Yr TIP will be interesting... After very poor showing in the 2 year foreign purchases last week, Fed trying to pique some interest in next weeks auctions is my opinion... treas.gov "The Fed’s minutes from their last meeting were released today and confirmed that they will be raising rates, perhaps more aggressively than the consensus view had previously believed. The minutes sent treasury yields immediately higher and sent the major indices tumbling as the minutes showed inflation fears on the fed’s part may be higher than the majority on Wall Street previously believed."
