CIS EUROBOND MARKETThe mood in the CIS Eurobond market remained rather negative yesterday in light of the increasing geopolitical risks in the wake of the recent events in Kazakhstan. A sharp uptick in US Treasury yields exerted further pressure.GOVERNMENT DEBTYesterday, yields across the OFZ curve rose 15 bps on average, catching up to rising UST yields during the holidays and reflecting a sharp decline in demand to place free ruble liquidity on the part of market participants. As we had expect...
MARKET COMMENT - UKRAINE AND BELARUS TENSIONS, WEAKER OIL WEIGH ON THE MARKETThe MSCI ACWI edged up 0.1% and the RTS (1,854) was flat.

MARKET COMMENT - RTS SETS A (NEARLY) 10-YEAR RECORD HIGHAlthough plenty of markets saw gains yesterday, weakness in major markets like the US (S&P 500 -0.7%) and China (MSCI -2.8%) dragged on overall performances. Russia ignored the more dour performances and reached a nearly 10-year high on the RTS at just below 1,690. Results, Russian inflation, US oil data and FOMC minutes are in focus.

CIS EUROBOND MARKETDemand for Russian sovereign Eurobonds remained strong yesterday, particularly at the long end of the curve, despite the volatility in global markets.

MARKET COMMENT - POSITIVE POLITICAL REMARKS FOR RUSSIA, US AMID A TUMBLE IN COMMODITY PRICESMarkets tended to retreat amid a rout in commodities and a less dovish than expected tone from the Fed. The MSCI ACWI declined 0.6% and the RTS (1,553) 1.4%. However, global and Russia indicators lean positive this morning, and political news flow last night leaned positive for sentiment.STORIES> SberCIB Trade Ideas> Current account surplus reaches $28.1 bln over 4m21> Russian CPI rises 0.1% last week> BG...
MARKET COMMENT - INFLATION REACTIONS, US STIMULUS, MSCI, G20 AND EUThe RTS finished 0.3% higher at 1,450, but around the time of Moscow's close a pullback hastened across the markets still trading. Key US indexes tumbled 2.4-3.5% as some market participants showed concerns about coming inflation and rising rates. That pullback continues this morning, while a US stimulus vote, MSCI's February rebalancing, and G20 and EU meetings are also on the agenda.STORIES> Novatek signs first long-term LNG co...
MARKET COMMENT - MARKETS CONSOLIDATE AS VACCINE CATALYSTS PASS BUT COVID REMAINSAfter a recent series of positive news developments, markets were left yesterday to focus back on the present state of play: expanding Covid-19 numbers in key economies, mass distribution of a certified vaccine months away at best, and another stalemate in US stimulus negotiations. The MSCI ACWI and RTS (1,258) fell 0.1% and 0.8%, respectively. APAC indicators are up, EMEA and US indicators down, and Russia indicator...
CIS EUROBOND MARKETDespite the fairly sharp drop in US Treasury yields yesterday, Russian sovereign Eurobonds traded mostly flat. Medium-dated paper slightly outperformed, the Russia 29 gaining 0.2 pp in price. GOVERNMENT DEBTOFZ yields continued to decline yesterday morning, similar to last week.

CIS EUROBOND MARKETRussian sovereign Eurobonds again found themselves on the retreat yesterday, with prices sliding 1.3-1.4 pp at the long end of the curve and 0.4-0.9 pp in the middle.

MARKET COMMENT - RUSSIA NEARLY LED GLOBAL CONSOLIDATION YESTERDAY; BETTER INDICATORS TODAYThe RTS declined 3.3% to mark 1,273, the second poorest performance among EMs after South Korea (-4.4%).

MARKET COMMENT - SIGNALS OF CONSOLIDATION, US VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, AND MSCIMarkets gained earlier in the day, a 2.2% rise on the RTS to 1,296 being one of the best results. Performances soured during the American session, with a stalemate in US stimulus negotiations widely blamed as a trigger. The announcement of Senator Kamala Harris as the US Democratic nominee for vice president is unlikely to alter sentiment, in our view. Tonight's MSCI review is an obvious point of focus, while eyes...
We are opening a long trade idea on Georgian banks before they report 2Q20 results next week. > Rationale. We think an important near-term driver for the Georgian bank stocks will be the 2Q20 IFRS results, which are due next week (for TBC Bank on August 18, for Bank of Georgia TBD), as well as the updated operating outlooks from the management teams. Having posted sizable losses in 1Q20 on very high up-front provisioning, we think both banks will bounce back with good profitability in 2Q20 - we ...
MARKET COMMENT - US STIMULUS PROMISES, SINKING DOLLAR SUPPORTED GLOBAL MARKETSAfter intraday turbulence, the MSCI EM gained 1.2% and MSCI World 0.9%. Russia fared similar to peers, the RTS gaining 0.8% to 1,266. Rising expectations of a dovish message from the Fed and another massive US fiscal stimulus program have suppressed the dollar and supported most other assets, especially gold.
