OFZs Tread Water Following Mixed CPI

RUSSIA
  • Local & USD rates open slightly on the backfoot this morning as military drills in Belarus, Normandy format talks, and negotiations with UK’s Truss kick off.
  • USD bonds racked up some gains yesterday with yields falling -10.6-20.8bp in 5-10Y tenors, while OFZ yields dipped -1-3bp across the curve.
  • W/w the OFZ curve is positioned lower in the belly (5-10Y) and mostly flat in 15-30Y tenors ahead of tomorrow’s CBR.
  • Headline CPI printed just shy of expectations at 8.73% y/y in headline, but higher in core at 9.24% yesterday.
  • WoW figures suggested continued inertia in early Feb at 0.29% vs 0.19% prior. Implied market pricing dipped from +111.5bp to +97.5bp following the print.
