The Indian central bank’s intervention in the derivatives market rose sharply in March with its net short dollar position surging to a record $103 billion. Net short dollar positions rose $25.4 billion from February, according to Bloomberg calculations based on Reserve Bank of India data released Thursday. The data, which is a reflection of the RBI’s intervention in both onshore and offshore forwards markets, rose as the authority intensified its defense of the currency in the midst of surging crude prices following the US-Iran war. “The massive buildup was expected as the central bank defended the currency in the spot and forwards market due to the Iran war,” said Madhavi Arora , chief economist at Emkay Global Financial Services Ltd. The RBI’s total short positions stood at $51.4 billion in the up to one year bucket, while it was at $52.8 billion in the above one year category, the data showed. It also had a $1.1 billion long position in the up to one month segment, the data showed. READ : India’s Rupee Trims Losses After Record Low as Oil Rally Fades The rupee’s slide in March led the central bank to take steps to limit banks’ open position limits to $100 million. It also asked banks to stop offering offshore contracts, involving the rupee, to clients, but reversed that move later. The currency recovered after the RBI’s steps but has come under renewed pressure as crude prices continued to climb. The rupee fell to a new record low of 95.3337 to a dollar on Thursday on growing worries that rising crude prices would lead to a wider current account gap amid sparse capital inflows.

The two-year yield ( US2Y ) fell 6.5 basis points to 3.90%, the five-year ( US5Y ) declined 5.4 basis points to 4.03%, and the benchmark 10-year yield ( US10Y ) eased 4.1 basis points to 4.39%. The 30-year yield ( US30Y ) slipped 2.6 basis points to 4.98%. U.S. GDP rose at a 2.0% annualized pace in the first quarter, missing the 2.2% consensus estimate, according to advance data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The reading marked a pickup from 0.5% growth in the prior quarter, when a government shutdown weighed on activity. The data showed inflation picking up as oil prices rose alongside the Iran conflict, while consumer spending growth slowed. Investment, exports, consumer spending, and government spending contributed to the increase in output. Interest rate expectations, based on CME FedWatch probabilities, remained concentrated in the 350–375 basis point range through 2026, with probabilities above 80% across several meetings. However, the distribution shifts and reverses in 2027. The probability of rates in the 350–375 basis point range declines from 75.4% in January 2027 to 33.1% by December, while the likelihood of the lower 325–350 basis point range rises to 34.8%, overtaking the higher band. The shift in probabilities points to a reversal in earlier expectations of higher-for-longer rates, with markets increasingly pricing in easing further out into 2027.

Kazuhiro Nogi | Afp | Getty Images Japan's yen surged by as much as 3% on Thursday, the most in a day in over three years, driven by what one report attributed to the first official intervention in the markets since 2024 to lift the currency. The Nikkei, citing a government source, said officials had intervened buying the currency, which had been around its weakest since July 2024 earlier on Thursday. The Japanese government and the Bank of Japan carried out a currency intervention on April 30 by buying yen and selling dollars, the Nikkei reported. Japanese Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama said earlier on Thursday that the timing to take "decisive action" in the market was nearing, in her strongest signal yet of potential currency intervention to prop up the sagging yen. The dollar was last trading at 156.665 yen down 2.3% by 1334 GMT, after the Japanese currency strengthened sharply. The U.S. currency was on track for its biggest one-day drop since December 2022. Top currency diplomat Atsushi Mimura also said the timing to take decisive action was approaching, adding that "extremely speculative" moves in the currency market were increasing. The Ministry of Finance has threatened intervention in currency and oil markets and on Thursday, reiterated that action could be "on all fronts". "This is our final evacuation warning to markets," Mimura told reporters. When asked whether he was alluding to the chance of an imminent yen intervention, Mimura said: "I think market players would know what I mean." The Japanese finance ministry's foreign exchange division could not be reached for immediate comment.
