SAGBs Tread Water After Omicron, China-Induced Gains

SOUTH AFRICA
  • SAGBs trade little changed around the open, despite more positive sentiment filtering through from the APAC session following China’s RRR cut yesterday.
  • SAGBs closed yesterday’s session bull flatter with 10-30y yields falling -10.5-12.8bp as Omicron cases showed less aggressive symptoms in Tshwane and that vaccinated patients were faring better than unvaccinated with less need for oxygen and shorter stay times in hospital.
  • 10Y yields broke through 10.00 support, while 30Y yields dipped below 10.70.
  • Key support for a move back down towards the 12 Nov lows stands at 9.88 & 10.60 respectively.
