Bond yields trade higher on Friday

14 Aug 2020 Evaluate

Bond yields traded higher on Friday, as the wholesale price-based inflation declined 0.58 per cent in July, even as food items turned costlier. WPI inflation in June was at (-) 1.81 per cent, while for the month of May and April it was (-) 3.37 per cent and (-) 1.57 per cent respectively. However, gains remain capped as government data showed retail inflation rose to 6.93 per cent in July, mainly driven by rising prices of food items like vegetables, pulses, meat and fish. The inflation based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) stood at 3.15 percent in July 2019. 

In the global market, benchmark U.S. Treasury yields surged to seven-week highs on Thursday after the Treasury sold a record amount of 30-year bonds to weak demand, the final sale of $112 billion in new coupon-bearing supply this week. Furthermore, oil prices advanced and were heading for a second week of gains amid growing confidence that demand for fuel is starting to pick up despite the coronavirus pandemic that has slammed economies worldwide.

Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 5 basis points higher at 5.94% from its previous close of 5.89% on Thursday.

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 7 basis points higher at 5.21% from its previous close of 5.14% on Thursday.
