Bond yields trade lower on Thursday

02 Mar 2017 Evaluate

Bond yields edged lower on Thursday, as a much stronger-than-expected quarterly economic growth lifted sentiments. India’s Gross domestic product (GDP) for the third quarter (Q3) of financial year 2016-17 (FY17) grew at 7%, allaying fears of any major effect of demonetisation though it was the lowest expansion in four quarters.

In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields rose broadly on Wednesday, with the 2-year's hitting a more than seven-year high, on increased expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise U.S. overnight interest rates at its March meeting. Furthermore, crude oil fell for a third consecutive session as a record build-up in U.S. stockpiles weighed on the market, with producers boosting shale oil production.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 9 basis points lower at 6.84% from its previous close of 6.93% on Wednesday. 

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 2 basis points lower at 7.00% from its previous close of 7.02% on Wednesday.
