Bonds yields edge higher on Thursday

25 Jul 2013 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher after the Reserve Bank of India took more steps to further restrict banks' access to cash to arrest the currency's plunge. Meanwhile, the Fixed Income Money Market and Derivatives Association of India said there would be no trading bands for government bonds and other securities on Thursday. However, RBI's offer of high yields in t-bill sale on Wednesday has sparked fears that high short-term rates will stay.

On the global front, US Treasuries prices stayed down, and briefly extended losses, on Wednesday after the Treasury had low demand for the $35 billion in new five-year debt it sold, despite a pick up in the allocation of the notes to fund managers. Meanwhile, brent futures slipped below $107 a barrel on Thursday after weak China economic data further toned down the fuel demand outlook in the world's second largest oil consumer, while its spread with U.S. crude widened as investors took profit.

Back home, the yields on 10-year 7.16% - 2023 bonds were trading 1 basis point higher at 8.43% from its previous close of 8.42%.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps rose 6 basis points higher to 8.49% from its previous close of 8.43% on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Reserve Bank of India has announced the auction of the 56 and 28 days Government of India Cash Management Bills for a notified amount of Rs 3,000 crore each. The auction will be conducted on July 25, 2013 using 'Multiple Price Auction' method.
