The initial reaction to the auction results has been positive, 10 yr TSY yields fell and "rate sheet influential" MBS prices are higher.

High yield stopped THROUGH WI.  In English, the yield decided on at auction was actually lower than where the 7yr was trading below the auction. 

We wouldn't be doing our job if we didn't say that these time frames are historically extremely volatile, but the extent to which yields stopped through is supportive for the rest of the day, week, and month...

And given the limited data situation the rest of the holiday week, we're generally feeling better than worse about MBS 's prospects at the moment.  That's not to say that profit taking isn't a reality and that no reasons for retracement will emerge.  But for now, smooth sailing until further notice.  Expect reprices for the better as MBS push into all time highs...
