Bond yields edge lower on Wednesday

12 Apr 2023 Evaluate

Bond yields edged lower on Wednesday as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) slashed its economic growth forecast for India by 20 basis points (bps) to 5.9 per cent for 2023-24 (FY24), citing lesser scope for pent-up demand due to historical revisions to data. The IMF also projected India’s retail inflation to ease to 4.9 per cent in FY24 from 6.7 per cent in FY23, and the current account deficit to come down to 2.2 per cent of GDP from an estimated 2.6 per cent a year ago.

In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields crawled higher in mostly uneven trading on Tuesday, with no real conviction in the moves, as investors geared up for today's highly anticipated inflation report that should determine the future path of interest rates. Furthermore, oil prices rose about 2% on Tuesday on hopes that the Federal Reserve might ease up on its policy tightening after a key U.S. inflation report this week, though concerns remain over Chinese demand.

Back home, the yields on new 10-year Government Stock were trading 1 basis points lower at 7.21% from its previous close of 7.22% on Tuesday.

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 1 basis point higher at 7.07% from its previous close of 7.06% on Tuesday.
