Bond yields remain steady amid lack of key triggers

18 Feb 2015 Evaluate

Bond yields were trading steady at its previous close of 8.80%, amid lack of key triggers ahead of the Union budget to be announced later this month. The concern is that the gross market borrowings of the government may be on the higher side due to bond maturities coming up in next fiscal. Meanwhile, traders expect bonds to trade in a narrow band in a holiday-truncated week.

On the global front, risk appetite tinged by optimism on Greece, hurt U.S. Treasuries and sent the benchmark 10-year note's yield to a seven-week high, which in turn boosted the dollar versus the yen. Meanwhile, Oil prices dipped on Wednesday after gaining more than a percent in the previous session, but trading was thin as several Asian countries started the Lunar New Year holidays which last for the rest of the week.

The bond market was closed on Tuesday on the occasion of Maha Shivaratri. 

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock 2023 was trading steady at Monday’s close of 7.71%. 

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading 2 basis points lower at 6.93% from its previous close of 6.95% on Monday.

The Reserve Bank of India has announced the auction of 91 & 364 day Government of India Treasury Bills for notified amount of Rs 8,000 crore and Rs 6,000 crore respectively. The auction will be conducted on February 18, 2015 using 'Multiple Price Auction' method.
