Friday November 30, 4:06 PM Korea bonds close higher on tame CPI,strong futures SEOUL, Nov 30 (Reuters) - South Korea's bonds crept higher by Friday's close as a mild inflation rate and upswings in U.S. treasury prices renewed confidence of investors who had fretted about growing talk of an economic recovery. The market brushed aside a hefty rebound in equities, cheered by the year's first monthly decline in the consumer price index (CPI) this year and amid a lack of substantial signs of fundamental improvement. "Indicators so far have showed the economic slowing is moderating, but not turning a corner," said Lee Hee-jin, a fund manager of Dongwon Investment Trust Management Co. Yields on the benchmark three-year treasury fell 10 basis points to 5.68 percent, while the comparable corporate bond yields closed down 12 basis points at 6.99 percent.
