SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs open slightly on the backfoot this morning with 2Y yields +1.3bp as PPI data looms, with passthrough from higher energy prices exerting pressure on the front end of the curve.
  • Yesterday's session saw a slight curve flattening with 2Y yields +2.8bp, while 15-30Y yields gave back early gains to end closer to the open at -0.5-2.1bp on the day.
  • 10Y yields stopped just short of 10.00 support, while the 30Y also turned tail just above 10.80 with both hitting the 50% retracement mark of the recent uptrend.
