Bond yields edged higher on Monday, after the latest U.S. data cemented the view that the Federal Reserve will hike its rates later this week.
In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields were little changed on Friday after seesawing following the release of a U.S. jobs report that showed the economy added 228,000 jobs last month but average hourly earnings failed to meet expectations. Furthermore, oil prices fell, pulled down as the latest rise in the U.S. rig count pointed to a further increase in American production, potentially undermining efforts led by OPEC to tighten markets.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 3 basis points higher at 7.12% from its previous close of 7.09% on Friday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 2 basis points higher at 6.95% from its previous close of 6.93% on Friday.
