Bonds and country risk
In fixed income, sovereign bonds in dollars closed mixed. The biggest increases were for the Bonar 2041 (+4%), Bonar 2035 (+3.1%), and the Bonar 2029 (+3.1%). The declines were led by Global 2046 (-1.4%). While, the country risk measured by the JP Morgan bank fell 0.7% in 2,409 units.
“The increases occur in a context of low prices after testing historical low values, and in the face of less global risk aversion given expectations that the Fed slow down rate hikes in the face of inflation that could start to subside,” said Research for Traders, noting that “The dollarization of portfolios also has an influence in the face of high local inflation”.
