Bund Yields Steady at Over Two-Week High
German 10-year Bund yields held just above 3.05%, their highest level since May 21, as easing tensions between Israel and Iran temporarily soothed concerns that weekend attacks could disrupt US-led peace efforts in the Middle East. Investors are also focused on the European Central Bank’s policy meeting on Thursday, where policymakers are widely expected to deliver a 25-basis-point rate hike, the first move in a year, after the Israel-Iran conflict triggered an energy crisis and fueled inflationary pressures. Markets will closely watch President Lagarde’s press conference for signals on future moves. The anticipated hike comes as euro-area inflation climbed to the highest in over two and a half years. Money markets are pricing in around 70 basis points of tightening by year-end, suggesting one additional quarter-point increase and a more than 70% probability of a third.
