YM Nudges Lower On Lack Of YCT Purchases

AUSSIE BONDS

The RBA held off from enforcing its YCT mechanism, choosing not to purchase ACGB Apr-24 in today's typical purchase window. This has weighed on YM, with that contract last trading -1.5 on the day, as some in the market were disappointed (we suggested that the previously flagged move from the RBA earlier this week limited the chances of such purchases today). ACGB Apr-24 now trades at 0.16% in yield terms, 6bp above the RBA's 0.10% target.
