Munis were a touch firmer in spots Thursday as inflows into muni mutual funds topped $2 billion, the largest figure in over four months. Issuance slowed this week, impacted by the Federal Open Market Committee meeting and market participants recalibrating at the end of the month. Currently, munis are "well positioned," though February and March are traditionally softer periods, when there's a shift from a seller's market to a buyer's market, Timlin said. High-yield funds saw inflows of $485.7 million compared to inflows of $351.2 million the previous week. The five-year at 2.22% (-1), the 10-year at 2.61% (-1) and the 30-year at 4.16% (-1) at 4 p.m.Treasuries richened slightly 10 years and in.
