Inflation fears continue to pressure sovereign debt for the second consecutive day

Inflation fears continue to pressure sovereign debt for the second consecutive day, with yields hitting multi-year highs in several countries. In Germany, ten-year bunds reached 3.375% (highest since 2011), ten-year Japanese bonds remained above 3% for the first time in 31 years, US Treasury bonds remained above 4.8%, and ten-year British gilts renewed 2008 highs at 5.294%. In Portugal, ten-year bonds reached 3.747%, setting new highs since 2023, although the country benefits from debt reduction and fiscal correction. The renewed conflict in the Middle East, with new exchanges of fire between Americans and Iranians in Hormuz, should worsen inflation and lead Western central banks to new rate hikes.
