Bond yields edged higher on Wednesday as traders remained on the sidelines and refrained from any buying activity ahead of the exit poll results due tomorrow for the ongoing assembly elections.
In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields rose on Tuesday, with the 30-year yield at its highest level in over a month as skittishness that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates next week led to a lackluster sale of $24 billion of three-year government notes. Furthermore, oil futures fell in Asian trade after industry data pointed to a potential ninth straight week of inventory builds, renewing concerns about an oversupply of oil despite output curbs by OPEC and non-OPEC members.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 1 basis point higher at 6.84% from its previous close of 6.83% on Tuesday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading flat at its previous close at 7.10% on Tuesday.
