futures net basis

September 13th, 2005, 1:15 pm

Dear experts,i am urgently looking for your help. I don’t undestand why in case the same chepest-to-delivery bond, a net basis for 2yr december bond futures (schatz) is .90, but for march is only .40. I would expect them to be approximately the same or march basis slightly higher because of more uncertainty about repo rate.I would highly appreciate your help.Thanks in advance.
