By Sophia Rodrigues
Published On 06 Aug 2020 , 04:51 PMAt the bond-buying auction today, the RBA focused much of its purchases on the November 2022 government bond, spending half of its notified amount in purchases of that bond line. However, the weighted average cut-off yield on this bond was still higher than the April 2023 bond.
