20 Aug 2014 Evaluate

Bond yields edged tad higher in afternoon deals on Wednesday in the run up-to results of Rs 8000 crore debt sale, the cut off price of which stood at Rs 97.89 and the yields at 8.64%. Meanwhile, for Rs 5000 crore worth 364-Days Treasury Bills, the cut off yield stood at 8.68%. Further, yields also edged higher amidst hopes that government could cut the auction size or likely cancel next week's debt sale.

On the global front, U.S. Treasury yields rose on Tuesday after unexpectedly strong housing data but only a modest increase in consumer inflation for July, pushing them up from last week's 14-month lows. Meanwhile, brent crude oil edged higher towards $102 a barrel on Wednesday, after slumping to a 14-month low in the previous session, as growing output from Iraq and Libya despite violence in those countries has kept the market well supplied.

Back home, the yields on new benchmark 8.40%- 2024 bond was trading 1 basis point higher at 8.55% from its previous close of 8.54% on Tuesday.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading 1 basis point lower at 8.03% from its previous close of 8.04% on Tuesday.
