Bond yields trade higher on Thursday

20 Dec 2018 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher on Thursday, as traders are booking profits from recent highs, after the US Federal Reserve hiked key interest rate for the fourth time this year, while Fed members expect two more hikes in 2019.

In the global market, US benchmark Treasury yields fell to more than eight-month lows on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve lowered projections for rate hikes next year and Fed Chair Jerome Powell said that balance sheet reduction is on autopilot. Furthermore, Oil prices fell to erase most of their gains from the day before, resuming declines seen earlier in the week amid worries about oversupply and the outlook for the global economy.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 3 basis points higher at 7.25% from its previous close of 7.22% on Wednesday.

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading flat at its previous close at 7.16% on Wednesday.
