As the country continues to celebrate Diwali and a new Deputy President is set to be sworn in today, we have been gifted a public holiday to allow all this celebrating to take place efficiently. Inflation numbers for October 2024 are with us and the KNBS has released this data in a modified format. I think the fact that inflation has dropped significantly to 2.7%, the KNBS has decided to spruce up their format with additional information. The T-bill results have also been attached for your perusal and you will see that the rates across the three T-bills continue to plummet as the Central Bank continues to reject a significant portion of bids received. Away from all the celebrating, below is a snapshot of what is at play within the secondary market for your consideration. No hunting today so please enjoy the weekend ahead!
Below are the two-way quotes for the benchmark tenors:
