Hong Kong 10 Year Government Bond Yield decreased to a 4-week low of 2.72%, mirroring the US Treasury yield that was not far from a one-month low as the minutes of the May FOMC meeting released Wednesday showed that the US economy is robust and the labor market is tight. At the same time, the notes also made no mention of a 75-basis-point lift. In China, Beijing plans to take targeted steps to support the slowing economy by broadening tax credit rebates, postponing social security payments and loan repayments, and rolling out new investment projects. Domestically, the annual inflation rate in Hong Kong eased to a 3-month low of 1.3% in April, while the underlying inflation was little changed at 1.6%.
Historically, the Hong Kong Government Bond 10Y reached an all time high of 10.49 in June of 1998. Hong Kong Government Bond 10Y - data, forecasts, historical chart - was last updated on May of 2022.
