Kuwait raises $6 billion in three-tranche bond sale, finance ministry says

Kuwait raised $6 billion through a three-tranche bond sale ($3 billion three-year, $1.5 billion five-year, $1.5 billion 10-year) that saw orders exceeding $18 billion despite regional tensions. Indian government bonds fell for the third straight session as escalating Middle East conflicts pushed crude oil to nearly $100 a barrel, while rising US Treasury yields and concerns over India's inflated crude import bill and resurgent inflationary pressures weighed on sentiment.
