Bond yields traded flat on Friday as investors remained on the sidelines and refrained from any buying activity, tracking rupee momentum against the dollar. Indian rupee recovered from its 39-month closing low by gaining 37 paise to 68.36 on Friday on fresh selling of the US currency by banks and exporters.
In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields fell from multi-year highs on Wednesday after the Treasury Department saw very strong demand for an auction of seven-year notes and after minutes from the Federal Reserve's November meeting contained no large surprises. Furthermore, oil trading was static as uncertainty ahead of a planned OPEC-led crude production cut and thin liquidity after the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday kept traders from taking big new positions.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading flat at its previous close at 6.19% on Thursday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 2 basis points higher at 6.14% from its previous close of 6.12% on Thursday.
