Agency spreads move in 1 to 2 bps as swaps widen; Fannie Mae announces new two-year issue
By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., Oct. 5 - Agency spreads tightened 1 to 2 basis points on Tuesday, while swaps ended the day 2 to 3 bps wider, according to Michael Skinner, an agency trader with Wall Street Access.
Fannie Mae announced it will price a new issue of two-year Benchmark Notes due Oct. 30, 2012 on Wednesday.
Price talk was Treasuries plus 14 bps, said Skinner.
The two-year is "right on top of outstanding debt," Skinner said, noting that there is "an appetite for front-end agencies."
