The Treasury will sell $32 billion of three-year notes on Nov. 8, $24 billion of 10-year notes on Nov. 9, and $16 billion of 30-year bonds on Nov. 10. These issues will all settle Nov. 15.
The Treasury said it “expects to continue to gradually increase gross issuance of [Treasury inflation-protected securities] in 2012.”
“Going forward, Treasury will provide guidance regarding any changes in the fiscal outlook that might impact the government’s financing needs,” the Treasury said.
