LT Yields Retrace 50% of the MTBPS Gains, 5Y CDS Drifts Lower

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs kick off on the backfoot this morning, with 10-30Y yields rising +3bp in early trading to follow on from yesterday's broadly weaker session.
  • Price action in LT yields has been choppy Post-MTBPS with bulls and bears fighting for direction, while 2Y yields have remained firmer heading into the SARB meeting this week.
  • Key resistance in the 10Y lies at 9.938 (50% fib) & 10.00 to the topside, while 10.637 & 10.713 are vital pivot points in the 30Y – which has proven less vulnerable than the 10Y.
  • SA's 5Y CDS continues to press lower with an eye on 190 support below.
