Bond yields edged lower on Wednesday as the banking system is awash with cash following the government's demonetisation scheme, while Consumer Price Index (combined) eased to 14 month low of 4.2% in October compared with 4.39% in September and 5% a year ago, raising hopes that the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) may cut monetary rate in its forthcoming monetary policy review next month.
In the global market, U.S. 30-year Treasury bond prices rose on Tuesday, after falling five straight sessions as investors took a breather selling government debt in the wake of a higher inflation outlook under the administration of President-elect Donald Trump. Furthermore, Oil futures fell after an industry report showed an unexpected build in U.S. crude stocks, paring some of their gains of nearly 6 percent from the session before.
