(RTTNews) - Continuing this week's series of announcements of the results of its long-term securities auctions, the Treasury Department on Tuesday revealed this month's auction of $70 billion worth of five-year notes attracted average demand.

The five-year note auction drew a high yield of 3.823 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.34.

The Treasury also sold $70 billion worth of five-year notes last month, drawing a high yield of 3.747 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.35.

The bid-to-cover ratio is a measure of demand that indicates the amount of bids for each dollar worth of securities being sold.

The ten previous five-year note auctions had an average bid-to-cover ratio of 2.36.

On Monday, the Treasury revealed this month's auction of $69 billion worth of two-year notes attracted above average demand.
