SAGBs Resilient, Despite Unsettling Fed Remarks - Bull Flatten W/W

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs start the session slightly on the backfoot as mixed risk sentiment filters through from the APAC session.
  • Yesterday's volatile session ended with the curve flatter at both ends as Fed Hawks wrong-footed markets ahead of what was expected to be a non-event in Jackson Hole.
  • Nevertheless, 2-5Y yields lifted +2-3bp, while 10-30Y yields fell -1-2.2bp on the day.
  • W/w the SAGB curve trades -10-14bp lower in the 10-30Y section of the curve, with duration benefitting for an unwind in risk premia: 5Y CDS -12.045bp w/w.
