About the talk:

Global Inflation rise to its highest since 1992. However, the concern of the global inflation is likely to be transitory in nature. On domestic level, Malaysia’s inflation is poised to pick up in Q2 2021, tracking the return to 2019 levels in oil prices after 2020’s slump due to the pandemic. We should see a softening in inflation for the rest of the year. Reflecting to the domestic bond market, while Malaysia Government Securities MGS yields retraced lower earlier arising from the FTSE Russell’s World Government Bond Index announcement end March 2021, we saw US Treasury 10-year yield adjusted much lower by 30bps (-1.5%) in June since March 2021. Watch the podcast to have better understanding on how would inflation affects the investment opportunities in domestic bond market.
