Euro bond yields rise on rate hike expectations
Eurozone bond yields have continued to rise for the seventh consecutive week, supported by increasing energy prices and growing expectations of interest rate hikes by central banks. The yields on 10-year German bonds reached their highest levels since June 2009, with forecasts suggesting that the European Central Bank's interest rate will reach 2.86% by December and rise to 3.46% by late 2027. Meanwhile, yields on some short-term bonds declined, and interest rate spreads between countries widened, with ongoing pressure on France and Italy's debt. Markets indicate the possibility of further rate hikes, raising concerns about European economies' ability to bear their debt burdens.
