Today’s Outlook:
– US MARKETS: Later tonight, the US will release important property sector data, namely Building Permits & Housing Starts (Agus.).
– The 10-Year Treasury yield briefly tested recent highs of around 4.4% before giving up gains, ahead the Federal Reserve’s two-day meeting, that many expected will end in a decision to hold rates steady at the current level. the Fed will also deliver fresh projections on economic outlook including inflation and unemployment as well as guidance on the US economic outlook. The Fed has previously projected that interest rates will likely peak at a 5.50% to 5.75% range, suggesting one more hike still to be delivered; but recent signs of slowing inflation have raised hopes that the central bank may choose to hold rates higher for longer rather than deliver an additional hike.
– EUROPEAN MARKETS: Eurozone will announce CPI (Aug) which is expected to be flat at 5.3% yoy, the same as the previous month, although on a monthly basis it detected a 0.6% mom increase from deflation of minus 0.1% in July.

Domestic Issue
IKN Authority Can Issue Bonds and Sukuk Next Year The Nusantara Capital City Authority (Otorita IKN) will be able to issue bonds and asset ownership certificates (sukuk) next year. What is the reason? Head of the IKN Authority Bambang Susantono did not deny when asked about the authority to issue bonds and sukuk in the revision of the IKN Law. One of the points in the revision is the discretion of the IKN Authority to manage the budget. Of course, he continued, by taking into account the fiscal capacity of the IKN Authority and the rules of the Ministry of Finance. With these considerations, the IKN Authority can issue bonds or sukuk. “Later we will issue bonds. Green bonds or bonds on climate change, perhaps climate bonds. It can be done later,” Bambang Susantono explained. He explained that the IKN Authority will have two functions. First as a ministry / agency, and as a special regional government. “The special regional government will start next year, if we are already designated as the national capital, the status as a special regional government will apply,” said Bambang Susantono.

Recommendation
US10YT was unable to break Resistance from the previous High yield level of 4.366%. Watch the nearest Support which is MA10 at the yield level of 4.291% to keep this trend Sideways rather than slowly turning into a downtrend, especially if MA20 / 4.241% Support is broken; then it leaves the last hope around 4.127% yield. ADVISE: HOLD; SELL ON STRENGTH.

ID10YT is still moving forward to the upper channel Resistance area in the range: yield 6.789% – 6.85% while RSI is still showing negative divergence. ADVISE: anticipate trend reversal (pullback). Support yield: 6.748% / 6.692% / 6.617% / 6.547%.
