10 year yield spikes amid a decline in bets on August rate cut
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel Yields of the 10-year benchmark government security spiked six basis points to 6.37% on Friday, before softening slightly and closing at 6.34%.The spike in yields came after the central bank governor said price stability will be the primary concern for the central bank amid cooling retail inflation, despite Mint Road winning the 'battle' against 10-year yield had closed at 6.31% the previous day.A section of the market started pricing in another rate cut in August after India's retail inflation, as measured by the consumer price index (CPI), hit a six-year low of 2.1%, data released on July 14 change in expectations of the rate cut trajectory also impacted auction of the 10 year paper conducted on Friday, pushing prices below 100 at 99.95, with cut off yield at 6.33%. The auction was for Rs 30,000 crores'When people are not positive about the rate cut next month, why would someone hold the security, they would want to sell,' said a bond trader at a primary dealership. 'There were quite a few people who had priced in a cut in the August policy, but after the interview, markets were not very positive about it,' the trader said.'The battle against inflation is won, but war continues,' RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra said at a banking summit organised by the newspaper in Mumbai on Friday. 'Our primary objective is to maintain price stability and we have mentioned that it is not inconsistent with the other objectives we have of growth because that is a prerequisite.'This comes just a few days before the monetary policy committee (MPC) is set to announce its rate decision on August 6. During the last MPC meet, the repo rate was reduced by a larger-than-expected 50 basis points to 5.50%'The rates went up because the market was anyway long, and those positions increased after the inflation data. Maybe because inflation was lower, markets thought that the RBI would be more open to further rate cuts in August. The governor today did not say anything different, but maintained what he has said in his previous encounters,' said a senior bond trader at another primary dealership.

Revanth Reddy should make way for Ponnam Prabhakar or Mahesh Kumar Goud as CM: BJP president
Telangana BJP president N. Ramchander Rao suggested that Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy should quit and hand over the post to his Cabinet colleague Ponnam Prabhakar or PCC President Mahesh Kumar Goud, both of them belonging to the Backward Classes (BCs) if he was really sincere about the BC welfare. In an informal interaction with the media at the State party office on Friday, Mr. Rao 'thanked' Mr. Reddy for making the suggestion of making former Governor Bandaru Dattatreya as the next Vice President and said the party will take a call on that and offered his own piece of advice to the CM. The BJP leader has accused Mr. Reddy of insulting the entire BC community with his comments that Prime Minister Modi belonged to a 'converted BC caste' and wanted to know what religion or caste his (CM) leader Rahul Gandhi belonged to. The Chief Minister should be given a 'Goebbels Prize' for all kinds of propaganda he was indulging in, he said and demanded the Congress first fulfil the promise of 42% quota for the BC in the local body polls by amending Section 285 of the Panchayat Raj Act to make it 'legally strong'. Mr. Rao said the Telangana government caste census cannot be a role model for the country when it had reduced the BCs numbers. It was unfair and outrageous to add 'all the Muslims' in the 10% quota out of the 42% BC quota when only a few castes like 'dudekulas', 'hajis' and 'pakirs' were included in the BC-B category earlier. The Congress government has made only two persons from among BC as Cabinet Ministers whereas the majority of Ministers in the Modi Cabinet belonged to BCs, he said. The BJP chief also dismissed about the internal fights in the party as a 'family' issue and said the Central leadership is seized of the issue. He would soon constitute a new State committee with 20 persons and 33% posts would be given to women. There is no pressure on him about the new party posts and wanted the aspirants to go to the people and fight on public issues.
