Bond yields trade flat on Monday

18 Mar 2019 Evaluate

Bond yields traded flat on Monday, traders remain cautious with a report that merchandise export growth slowed again in February to 2.4% from 3.7% in the previous month, although trade deficit narrowed to $9.60 billion from $14.73 billion in January, as imports contracted by 5.4%, the worst fall since August 2016.

In the global market, benchmark 10-year and 2-year US Treasury yields on Friday dropped to their lowest levels since early January, weighed down by weaker-than-expected US economic data that suggested the Federal Reserve will hold interest rates steady for the rest of the year. Furthermore, Oil prices dipped, amid concerns that an economic downturn may dent fuel consumption, but crude markets remain broadly supported by supply cuts led by producer group OPEC and U.S. sanctions against Iran and Venezuela.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading flat at its previous close of 7.50% on Friday. 

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading flat at its previous close of 7.00% on Friday.
