Treasuries experienced a twist steepening as the long end underperformed while the 7-year sector remained stable, impacted by a weak 10-year auction. Long-end yields were cheaper by up to 3bps, while the front end became richer by 1.5bps. This steepening widened the 2s10s and 5s30s spreads by 3bps and 4.5bps respectively.
