Bond yields trade higher on Wednesday

18 Mar 2020 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher on Wednesday tracking a sharp spike in U.S. Treasury yields overnight and amid uncertainty about likely monetary policy easing at home. Despite S&P Global Ratings lowered India's economic growth forecast to 5.2 percent for 2020, saying the global economy is entering a recession amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In the global market, the benchmark U.S. 10-year Treasury note yield climbed back over the 1% level on Tuesday as a modicum of renewed confidence shored up Wall Street and reduced demand for safe government debt after the Federal Reserve announced plans to rescue the stressed commercial paper market. Furthermore, oil prices steadied after slipping to new four-year lows, sapped by fears for fuel demand and the global economy amid travel and social lockdowns triggered by the coronavirus epidemic.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 6 basis points higher at 6.32% from its previous close of 6.26% on Monday.

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 8 basis points higher at 6.15% from its previous close of 6.07% on Monday.
