SAGBs Take a Knock, 2Y Notches +12.1bp Higher

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs kick off on the back foot this morning, with 30Y yields +1.3bp higher at the open.
  • Yesterday's session saw yields track +10-12.8bp higher across the curve as concerns over the Chinese recovery and Evergrande dented risk sentiment and higher UST added to upside pressure.
  • The most notable move was in 2Y yields which spiked sharply higher (+12.1bp) above the 5.00 mark to mid-July levels.
  • Price action in 30Y yields became choppy just below 10.80 – just below the August & July highs.
  • SA's 5Y CDS also ticked higher for a second consecutive session with last week's high at 208.415 coming onto focus.
