🇩🇪 Germany’s 10Y Bund Yield Nears Two-Year High
Germany’s 10-year government bond yield climbed to 2.93%, approaching last week’s 2.99%, marking its highest level in over two years.
The rise reflects growing investor concerns over inflation as geopolitical tensions intensify.
🌍 Middle East Tensions Fuel Market Anxiety
Renewed conflict in the Middle East has triggered fresh inflation fears:
- Israel launched strikes on Iran’s Asaluyeh refinery and South Pars gas field
- Iran’s Revolutionary Guard issued evacuation warnings across major oil-producing regions including Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar
- Oil prices resumed their upward rally amid supply concerns
📊 Market Reaction

- Federal Reserve (Fed)
- Bank of England (BoE)
However, investors are closely monitoring policy signals for how authorities will respond to escalating inflation risks.
