Bond yields edged lower on Wednesday after retail inflation decelerated to a two-year low, which may nudge the central bank to cut interest rates going ahead.
In the global market, Shorter-dated U.S. Treasury yields rose to their highest levels of the year on Tuesday, with 2-year notes touching over 6-year highs, ahead of an expected increase in U.S. overnight interest rates at Wednesday's Federal Open Market Committee meeting. Furthermore, oil prices fell following a reported rise in U.S. crude inventories and an estimate that OPEC may have produced more crude in November than previously thought, potentially undermining a planned output cut.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 1 basis point lower at 6.41% from its previous close of 6.42% on Tuesday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 1 basis point lower at 6.38% from its previous close of 6.39% on Tuesday.
