Bond yields edged higher on Friday, tracking gains in US Treasury yields, while investors also await fresh supply of notes at a weekly auction today.
In the global market, Treasury yields rose on Thursday after two Federal Reserve officials said they saw no reason to cut interest rates without new economic deterioration, a day after Fed meeting minutes showed policymakers disagreed on the US central bank’s rate cut last month. Furthermore, Oil prices clawed back the previous day’s losses, with Brent nudging above $60 a barrel, as tighter supplies from key producers offset slowing demand growth while investors await clues from the Federal Reserve on US monetary policy.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 1 basis point higher at 6.56% from its previous close of 6.55% on Wednesday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 2 basis point higher at 6.40% from its previous close of 6.38% on Wednesday.
