Global bond markets brace for decades of rate pain as Iran linked energy spikes fuel sticky inflation

Global bond markets brace for decades of rate pain as Iran linked energy spikes fuel sticky inflation

Global bond markets are bracing for sharp interest rate pain as investors recalibrate for higher-for-longer rates. Benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yields reached their highest level in about a year, shortly after the government sold 30-year bonds at the highest yield since 2007. Traders link the move to sticky inflation and energy shocks tied to the war with Iran, pushing expectations of further central-bank hikes worldwide and pressuring mortgages, lending, stocks, and growth.

Nabard cancels ₹7000 crore bond sale as bids stall at ₹3030 crore

Nabard cancels ₹7000 crore bond sale as bids stall at ₹3030 crore

Nabard has withdrawn a planned three-year bond sale scheduled for Friday, citing weak investor demand that would have forced higher borrowing costs. The lender targeted ₹7,000 crore, including a ₹5,000 crore greenshoe option, but received bids worth only about ₹3,030 crore. Dealers estimate yields could have been about 7.79% for the base amount and as high as 8.04% if all bids were accepted. Since few expected Nabard to accept 8%, bidding stopped around ₹3,000 crore.
