Bond yields edge lower on Monday

Bond yields edged lower as sharp rally in global crude prices following a rate cut by China on Friday hurt sentiment. Going forward, the yield is likely to be range bound ahead of the GDP data due on Friday and the RBI polcy meeting on December 2, 2014.

On the global front, U.S. Treasury long bond yields fell on Friday in thin trading, in line with declines in the eurozone after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said the central bank was prepared to do more to stimulate the sluggish eurozone economy. Meanwhile, Brent crude futures rose above $80.50 a barrel on Monday ahead of a meeting of the producer group OPEC at which an output cut will be discussed, while China's move to lower interest rates late last week also underpinned prices.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading 4 basis points lower at 7.31% from its previous close of 7.35% on Friday.
