RATES of the Treasury bills (T-bills) and Treasury bonds (T-bonds) to be offered this week may end mixed before the release of key Philippine economic data and amid renewed inflation concerns that could bolster central banks’ hawkish stance. Still, Tuesday’s bond auction is expected to be “well-received,” with the papers seen to fetch rates of 7.175%-7.2%, the trader added. Meanwhile, the 20-year bond rose by 10.6 bps week on week to end at 7.5414%, while the five-year debt, the tenor closest to the remaining life of the papers on offer on Tuesday, went down by 7.56 bps to 7.3259%. The one-year paper fetched an average rate of 5.95%, declining by 1.6 bps week on week. The BTr plans to raise P330 billion from the domestic market this month, or P200 billion in T-bills and P130 billion from T-bonds.
