What do the figures leave out, and how are they cited?Limits, dates and how to cite
What this number cannot tell you
- Why it sold where it did. Results show what was bid and accepted, not the reasons behind any bid.
- The cost over the bill's life in other terms. The discount rate is Treasury's quoting convention; the investment rate states the same result as a bond-equivalent yield.
- Demand on another day. Bill sizes change week to week, so a bid-to-cover ratio is comparable only with care.
