SAGBs Gain Post-FOMC; 3x6 FRAs Fall -3bp

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs open on the front foot in line with firmer global risk sentiment and lower UST yields following last night’s FOMC.
  • 10-30Y yields are -1.6-2.2bp lower this morning, following on from yesterday’s -3.4-5.9bp move led by the 30Y. Powell delivered in line with expectations on the +50bp hike and guidance towards balance sheet reductions, but downplayed any appetite for +75bp hikes – supporting global risk.
  • Key support in the 10Y is still defined at 10.20 and 10.80 in the 30Y. 1x4 FRA-Jiba3m spreads remain stable at +45bp, while 3x6s saw a slight dip to +96.2bp from the weekly high of +100bp.
