Bloomberg.



In the working world without reward I should step outside of my comfort zone and aim higher. Similar to who in debt with me like to say: ‘Não é Jaime pai я – but aim higher’.

Let’s see the common interpretation of my dream: - To see a blank check in your dream, symbolizes your unused potential. It may also indicate unclaimed rewards:

Treasuries Fall on Bets $63 Billion Sale Will Deter Investors 

March 10 (Bloomberg) -- Treasuries fell on speculation the sale of $63 billion of securities this week will deter investors and as rising stocks reduced demand for the safest assets.

The losses pushed the three-year note yield to the highest level since Feb. 27 before the Treasury Department’s record $34 billion auction of the notes today.  “Supply and the firmer tone in equities have taken a bit of the shine from the customary safe-haven bid in Treasuries,” a senior fixed-income strategist at Royal Bank of Canada in London. “There’s an ongoing tussle between supply and the mounting deflationary forces in the economy.” Ten-year note yields increased seven basis points, or 0.07 percentage point, to 2.93 percent at 7:40 a.m. in New York, according to BG Cantor: Market Data. The price of the 2.75 percent security due in February 2019 dropped 18/32, or $5.63 per $1,000 face amount, to 98 15/32. Once the world’s biggest bank by market value, Citigroup logged five quarters of losses totaling more than $37.5 billion since it posted a $2.1 billion profit in the third quarter of 2007. Bond Outlook: Treasuries may resume a rally that pushed the 10-year yield to a record low of 2.04 percent on Dec. 18 on the deepening recession and the prospect of the Federal Reserve buying securities, McGuire said. The 10-year yield may drop to 2.7 percent by the end of March, he said. A Bloomberg survey of banks and securities companies projects 2.57 percent, with the most recent forecasts given the heaviest weightings. The extra yield investors get for buying 10-year notes in Germany instead of the U.S. is disappearing. Bunds yield three basis points more than Treasuries, narrowing from almost 90 basis points on Dec. 30. German bonds outperformed Treasuries this year as the European Central Bank cut interest rates twice.  European Debt: European bonds dropped as the Netherlands and Austria sold securities, part of at least 12 billion euros of sales planned by governments in the region this week. U.S. Economy: The world’s largest economy will shrink in the first half of the year and grow at a 1 percent pace over the second half, senior U.S. economist Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in New York, wrote in a report yesterday.

The London interbank offered rate, or Libor, for three- month dollar loans, climbed to 1.31 percent yesterday, from 1.08 percent on Jan. 14. March 10, 2009 07:42 EDT
