The Treasury Department on Tuesday announced the results of this month's auction of $58 billion worth of three-year notes, revealing the sale attracted above average demand.

The three-year note auction drew a high yield of 3.485 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.73.

Last month, the Treasury also sold $58 billion worth of three-year notes, drawing a high yield of 3.669 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.53.

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 three-year note auctions had an average bid-to-cover ratio of 2.59.

The Treasury is due to announce the results of this month's auctions of $39 billion worth of ten-year notes and $22 billion worth of thirty-year bonds on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively.
