Bond Yields rise tracking U.S. crude oil futures on Wednesday

18 May 2011 Evaluate

Bond Yields rose on Wednesday tracking a rise in the U.S. crude oil futures, also as traders preferred staying on the sidelines ahead of the Treasury bill sale later in the noon for cues on the outlook. Cut-off yields at Treasury bill auctions have been rising since the start of this fiscal year, indicating the central bank will maintain its tightening monetary stance. The market was closed on Tuesday for a local holiday. Meanwhile, Brent crude oil futures rebounded above $111 on Wednesday on a softer dollar and after a surprise drop in the U.S. gasoline stocks allayed concerns about weak demand ahead of the peak driving season.

On the global front, the U.S. Treasury yields fell through key technical resistance levels as weak data added to disappointment over the pace of economic growth and investors moved out of commodity and equities markets back into bonds.

Back home, the yields on 10-year benchmark; the 7.80%-2021 were higher at 8.30% from its previous close of 8.28 % on Monday.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were at 8.18% higher than Monday's close of 8.15%.

The Reserve Bank of India has announced the auction of 91-day and 364 day Government of India Treasury Bills for notified amount of Rs 8,000 crore and Rs 3000 crore respectively. The auction will be conducted on May 18, 2011 using 'Multiple Price Auction' method.
