AUSSIE BONDS

The Australian Office of Financial Management (AOFM) will today sell A$150mn of the 1.25% 21 Aug 2040 Indexed Bond, issue #CAIN413. The line was last sold on 23 June 2020 for A$100mn. The sale drew an average yield of 0.2184%, at a high yield of 0.2275% and was covered 3.2800x. There were 41 bidders, 14 of which were successful and 9 were allocated in full. Amount allotted at highest yield as percentage of amount bid at that yield was 68.2%.

  • Australian breakevens are back from recent wides, much like their U.S. equivalent, with the broader global inflationary impulse set to provide at least a latent amount of demand at today's supply, as investors seek protection from the expected upcoming (transitory?) inflationary pressure.
  • Westpac believe that "BEIs have had the main part of their correction higher."
  • Results due at 0200BST/1100AEST.
