SAGBs Firm as Risk Sentiment, Fiscal Outlook Improve

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs open firmer this morning with a bull flattening bias holding in duration.
  • 10-30Y yields stand -4.4-6.9bp lower, having reversed at 9.85 & 10.613 resistance respectively.
  • 30Y yields are hovering just beneath 10.50 pivot support, with an eye on the prior lows at 10.40 – should global risk sentiment continue to remain supportive.
  • Signs of an even larger fiscal windfall than forecast at the MTBPS should also bolster LT yields heading into the Feb budget.
