20 Jun 2014 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher in range-bound trade on Friday as traders trimmed bond holdings to make room for debt sale later in the session while high oil prices continue to weigh on sentiment. However, yields are expected to remain in a tight range in the absence of any major triggers in the near-term.

On the global front, U.S. Treasuries prices fell on Thursday after the government had to pay more to sell $7 billion in new 30-year Treasuries Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). Meanwhile, Brent crude held near $115 a barrel on Friday, close to a nine-month high and headed for its second weekly gain on increased risks of supply disruptions from Iraq.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock 2023 were trading 2 basis points higher at 8.71% from its previous close of 8.69% on Thursday.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading 3 basis points higher at 7.92% from its previous close of 7.89% on Thursday.
