Treasury Bills
The
T-bills market was slightly bullish today, with slight buys on the short and
medium end of the curve, as market liquidity was bolstered by OMO maturity inflows
of c.N200bn. The OMO auction by the CBN was well over subscribed to the tune of
N133bn on the 210-day bill offered. The CBN however sold only N2.068bn of the
91-day and N51.96billion of the 210-day bill, as it cut its auction stop rate
by another 5bps for the second day in a row, with rates clearing at 15.95% and
17.70% on the two bills respectively. We expect the market to be slightly
bullish tomorrow, as market players will look to cover some lost bids from the
auction.
