Yields sharply drop at Thursday T-bill auctions

The 182-day treasury T-bills dropped to 17.716% at Thursday’s auction from 18.469% at the previous auction, and the yield for the 357-day T-bills plunged to 17.606% from 18.903% previously. Yields continued to drop on larger inflows into the market from foreign investors, with flows reporting touching the USD1bn mark. We expect volatility to dominate the market for the next few weeks with flows predominantly setting the tone for yields and to a much lesser degree outturns of inflation.
