In the government bond markets, the 10-yr Treasury yield bounced back to 2.90% from a three-week low of 2.85% hit yesterday, while the 10-yr German respective yield followed suit trading around 0.33% in early European trade from a five-week low of 0.30% in yesterday’s intraday session.

GREECE: The yield of the Greek 10Y benchmark has retreated at the time of writing to 4.241% after rising for three consecutive sessions, remaining though at its highest level since 21 June 2018 (4.311%) while the spread with the German 10y benchmark stands at the time of writing at 390.90 bps, lower from yesterday’s 397.40 bps but still at its highest level since 21 June 2018 (398.0 bps).
