Eurozone bonds approach multi-year high
European bond market data shows a slowdown in selling pressure, with European bond yields remaining near their highest levels in years. Notably, the 10-year German bond yield reached around 3.547%, close to its highest in 17 years. Borrowing costs have risen in high-debt countries such as France and Italy, with the 10-year French bond yield climbing to approximately 4.655%. The spread between French and German bonds has widened to over 110 basis points, the highest since 2012, reflecting increased concerns over fiscal stability and political uncertainty. This trend is driven by economic fundamentals and expectations that the European Central Bank will continue to tighten monetary policy, amid growing expectations of interest rate hikes by the end of the year.
