Bond yields trade higher on Monday

06 Mar 2017 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher on Monday, after the U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen suggested that a rate increase later this month was a distinct possibility.

In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields rose on Friday, with 2-year notes touching a fresh 7-1/2-year high and other maturities hitting multi-week peaks as statements from Federal Reserve officials including Chair Janet Yellen appeared supportive of an increase to U.S. overnight interest rates. Furthermore, oil prices slipped in Asian trade, wiping out some of the gains of the previous session amid ongoing concern over Russia's compliance with a global deal to cut oil output.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 6 basis points higher at 6.84% from its previous close of 6.78% on Friday.

The benchmark five year yields were trading 4 basis points higher at 7.06% from its previous close of 7.02% on Friday.
