Bond yields sustained the positive momentum for second consecutive session on Wednesday as traders stayed on the sidelines ahead of the sale of a new 10-year paper on Friday and the outcome of the US Federal Reserve's two-day policy meeting. The expectation is that the Federal Reserve could begin to prepare financial markets for further monetary easing at the conclusion of a two-day meeting that began on Tuesday, even if it refrains from any new stimulus just yet.

However, in Asian trade, the 10-year US benchmark bond yield was at 2.02 percent from 1.98 percent in late New York trade, when it had dropped 13 bps. Meanwhile, Oil fell in New York for a fourth day, the longest losing streak in three months, on concern a Greek referendum on Europe’s rescue plan will worsen the region’s debt crisis and curb economic growth.

The yields on 10-year benchmark 7.80% - 2021 bonds 2021 bonds were trading tad up at up at 8.95% against its previous close of 8.94%.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading at 7.40% from 7.39% on Tuesday.
