The Fed is a participant in that auction with a large ($80B/month) budget and a target interest rate of 0-0.25%, though. You don't have much of an incentive to bid low if you know the Fed is going to swoop in and buy the bonds anyway. |

The Fed buying $80B/month is less than 5% of what was issued.
