Analysts View:
PL Macro: Yesterdays data on industrial output and retail sales growth was
mostly in line with expectations. Industry expanded 2.8% y/y in May (vs
consensus at 3.3% y/y) and retail sales went up 1.8% y/y (vs. consensus at
1.7% y/y). Although the growth seems to have lost momentum from the
beginning of the year, development of monthly indicators suggest similar pace
of growth as was in 1Q15 (our point estimate of GDP is at 3.3% in 2Q15 vs.
3.6% y/y in 1Q15). Data was neutral for FX and bond market that are driven by
global events ongoing Greece negotiations and aftermath of FOMC meeting.
We expect that slightly dovish tone of FOMC takes off some pressure from
yields that may be further reduced in case there is positive solution to Greek
situation. We currently see 10Y at 3.4% at the end of the year and stronger
zloty (4.06 vs. EUR).
HU Bonds: This weeks auctions sent HTB yields to new lows. The Debt
Management Agency (KK) offered and issued HUF 40bn worth of 3M and
12M HTBs with average yields of 1.05% on Tuesday and Thursday. The
floating rate note was well-bid as well. The KK thus issued HUF 10bn, as
planned. Demand for both short-dated and long-term bonds has been strong
so far this year and we do not expect the KK to run into any difficulties in the
primary market. HTB yields are expected to drop below 1% next week, thanks
to the broadly expected rate cut. In line with the market consensus, we expect
the MPC to cut the key rate to 1.5% on Tuesday. The wording of the statement
will be crucial in terms of whether the MPC gives any indication on if it will
carry on with the easing cycle in July. We believe that the EURHUF may
strengthen to 310 by the end of June. However, we see the currency pair
heading north by the end of this year.
RO Bonds: In line with their initial target, the debt managers sold RON 400mn
in three-month T-bills. Average yields moved marginally higher than the level
paid in March (1.22% vs. 1.2%). The bid-to-cover ratio was 2.2. So, the
demand was almost double the raised amount. With a prospective negative
inflation rate in 2H15, the central bank could continue its monetary easing
cycle by reducing minimum reserves in small steps. Additional liquidity may
offer some support to the short end of the yield curve, while medium- and longterm maturities will be driven mainly by external risks. We estimate the 5-year
ROMGB yield at 3.1% in December 2015 and the inflation rate at 0.1% y/y.
