MNI POLITICAL RISK - Thune Eyes 'Deficit-Negative' Legislation

Asian EM sovs yields are flat to 2bps higher and largely track moves in the US Tsys markets with slightly better selling through the belly of the curves. Local currency Philippines debt has outperformed Indonesian debt recently with the divergence in central bank policies with BSP on track for a rate cut as early as August, while fiscal deficit and currency concerns weigh on Indonesian bonds, BI kept rates on hold on Wednesday.
- Philippines inflation continues to fall and now sits at 3.9% from a peak of nearly 9% early last year, while concerns grow over increased planned spending by President-elect Prabowo Subianto’s administration with some reports they are considering scrapping a ceiling on the deficit are adding to market jitters.

Global tech stocks have been hit recently as trade restrictions and geopolitical tension rise, both the JCI up 1% & PSEi down 0.10 look to have missed this sell-off largely due to their small reliance on tech companies in their indices.
- Looking ahead, Philippines has BoP Overall on Friday.
