Bond yields tread water ahead of crucial CPI, IIP data

12 Dec 2013 Evaluate

Bond yields were treading water for second consecutive session, as dealers preferred staying light ahead of October IIP, November CPI data. On the macro-front, the IIP is estimated to fall to 1.2% from 2% in the previous month, while CPI is expected to be in double digits, at 10%. The data assumes significance as this would provide cues on RBI’s stance in its upcoming monetary policy meet in the coming week.

Earlier in the day, bond yields before steadying at its previous close, were trading higher tracking Rupee’s weakness. On the macro-front, Rupee slipped by 40 paise on account of fresh demand from oil importers and ahead of the release of economic data.

On the global front, U.S. Treasury debt prices fell on Wednesday as the market built in a price concession for the Treasury's $13 billion 30-year bond auction on Thursday, the final leg of the three-part $64 billion sale of government debt this week. Meanwhile, brent futures slid toward $109 a barrel on Thursday as a looming U.S. budget deal backed expectations the Federal Reserve may act soon to unwind a stimulus programme that has supported oil prices.

Back home, the new 10 year Government Stock 2023 were trading flat at its Wednesday’s close of 8.83%.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading1 basis point higher at 8.42% from its previous close of 8.41% on Wednesday.

As the liquidity conditions are expected to tighten on account of advance tax payments commencing from mid-December 2013, Reserve Bank has decided to provide additional liquidity of Rs 10,000 crore through the 14-day term repo scheduled to be conducted on December 13, 2013 (Friday). Accordingly, with this, the notified amount for the 14-day term repo auction to be conducted on December 13, 2013 will be adjusted upwards by Rs 10,000 crore.
