The Federal Reserve continued its slow progress toward higher interest rates, with its language indicating that it remains on track to raise its benchmark interest in December for the first time. Following Donald Trump’s surprise victory in the US presidential elections US bond yields rose sharply, with the 10-year Treasury yield increasing from 1.80% to 2.30%. The market is now pricing in a 100% probability of the Fed hiking rates in December 2016. Expectation is for the Trump administration to embark on a very fiscally aggressive policy of tax cuts and increased infrastructure spending, stroking inflationary pressures. However, the sharp rise in the 10-year Treasury yield has gotten ahead of itself which has factored in a lot of future economic optimism. Trump’s new government will have to balance out aggressive tax cut and fiscal spending with fiscal deficit. At this juncture, we see limited upside in yield in the near future. The sharply higher Treasury yields have led to investors pulling their money out of emerging markets. Given the foreign shareholding in MSG, this emerging market outflow has caused both the MYR and MGS to weaken significantly in the month of November 2016, with the Ringgit weakening from 4.18 to 4.46 to the USD. Meanwhile, Malaysia’s CPI growth has remained subdued and well within BNM’s forecast. The current low inflationary environment allows BNM to maintain its dovish monetary policy, however the likelihood of further rate cuts has declined given the MYR’s weakness. However, we cannot rule out a possibility of rate cut next year should GDP growth surprise to the downside and BNM decides to lean on pro-growth stance. 0.00 -5.00 Jun-12 Nov-16 AmDynamic Sukuk BPAM Corporates Sukuk Index The value of units may go down as well as up.
