Bond yields trade higher on Friday

23 Dec 2011 Evaluate

Bond yields were trading higher owing to the bearish sentiment as bidding began for Rs 12,000 crore worth federal debt sale amid tight cash conditions.

On the global front, US Treasuries prices were mixed on Thursday in light, choppy trading, while long bonds were boosted by the Federal Reserve's final buyback of the year. Meanwhile, Brent futures were steady above $107 a barrel on Friday, supported by fresh signs of a strengthening US economy and the prospect of supply disruptions from the Middle East.

The yields on 10-year benchmark 8.79% - 2021 bonds were trading at 8.39%, higher than its 8.33% close on Thursday.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading at 6.97% from its previous close of 6.93% on Thursday.

The Government of India have announced the sale (re-issue) of three dated securities for Rs 12,000 crore on December 23, 2011, which includes (i) “7.83 percent Government Stock 2018” for a notified amount of Rs 4,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction, (ii) “8.79 percent Government Stock 2021” for a notified amount of Rs 5,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction and (iii) “8.97 percent Government Stock 2030” for a notified amount of Rs 3,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction.
