Global bond sell-off drives yields high

Global markets have experienced a broad sell-off of sovereign bonds, leading to historic high yields as borrowing costs in Europe, Asia, and North America have risen amid concerns over inflation and escalating tensions in the Middle East. In Europe, the yield on the two-year German bond reached 2.983%, the highest since 2024, while the yield on the 10-year bond climbed to 3.370%, the highest since 2011. In France, the 10-year bond yield stood at 4.244%, approaching levels seen during the 2008 financial crisis. In Asia, the 10-year Australian bond yield reached 5.205%, the highest since 2011, while the Japanese 10-year bond yield remained above 3% for the first time since 1996. These movements reflect market concerns over rising energy prices due to tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, increased issuance of corporate debt to finance AI projects and data centers, and a growing demand for higher returns on long-term bonds.
