Indian Government Bonds Recover Amid Softer U.S. Inflation Data and Stable Oil Prices
Indian government bonds recovered over two sessions, supported by softer U.S. inflation data that eased Federal Reserve rate hike concerns and steady oil prices below $85 a barrel. Yields declined as U.S. Treasury yields fell, reducing pressure on emerging-market debt. State-run banks and foreign investors actively bought bonds amid cautious market sentiment due to crude oil's impact on inflation and fiscal risks. Attention is now on India's potential inclusion in Bloomberg's Global Aggregate Index, which could boost foreign investment.
