INSIDE TURKEY: 10-Year Yield Tests 11% Before Bond Auctions

(Bloomberg) -- Yield on 10-yr govt bond +14bps to 10.99%, highest since Jan. on closing basis.
  • Treasury due to sell 2-year and 9-year fixed coupon debt in auctions Monday, 5-yr floating and fixed coupon bonds Tuesday
  • “The timing is unfortunate, given the deterioration in global liquidity conditions,” writes Erkin Isik, a strategist at TEB in Istanbul
    • “Bids will likely remain weak even after the recent sell-off in bonds, so we don’t recommend buying bonds yet”
  • TRY -0.9% to 3.2791/USD as of 11:44am in Istanbul, set to close at record
