OFZ Yields Rise Slightly as FOMC, CBR Meetings Loom

RUSSIA
  • Local & USD rates kick off on the back foot today with yields up +2-3bp across the curve in early trading with 7Y yields most offered at +3bp.
  • This follows on from yesterday’s broadly weaker session, which saw bear steepening pressures drive 7-15Y yields +3-5bp higher on the day.
  • 10Y yields remain pegged within the 8.50-8.61 range, with upside momentum showing tentative signs of fading as more favourable inflation conditions emerge in December.
  • Key support stands at 8.50 & 8.34. Weekly CPI will be keenly anticipated this week ahead of the CBR meeting, with the bbg consensus coalescing around a +100bp hike. 3x6 FRA-Mosprime Spreads stand at +84.5bp.
