Fixed Income Daily Pulse, 17 April 2015


The day’s trade recap (from our trading desk):

·        On echoes of previous days, local govvies continued lumbering along after a short early morning rally around 1-2 bps. Trading volume was extremely light at today’s session, notably saw the MGS ‘04/30 printed at 4.08-09% levels with RM140m changed hands, which could signal a low inflation mentality in positioning. The reopening of SPK ‘07/22 was also announced today, size of RM2.0b (+RM1.5b private placement). WI was quoted 4.05-95% with nothing done, mid-to-mid 12 bps spread to MGS. Spread is extremely tight compared to historical average of 35-40 bps, although it should be expected given the tightening of GII/MGS spreads. This issuance is expected to be lightly traded post auction as a yield hungry market gobbles up the issuance. Over the GG/AAA segment, 2023-2024 tranches of Telekom traded mixed to a range of 4.36%-4.43%, with a collective trading volume of RM80m. Elsewhere in the AA segment, Sarawak Energy ‘07/24 and ‘06/26 traded 3 and 2 bps lower to 4.68% and 4.82% respectively, with RM15m changed hands. Notable trade also included Anih ‘11/18, which saw the yields traded 1 bp lower to 4.24% with RM30m traded.
