Eurozone government bond yields rise in early trade and the trend could continue throughout the day, Commerzbank's Hauke Siemssen says in a note. "Without a circuit breaker in sight and the U.S. out on holiday, the bearish dynamics could continue ahead of the weekend," the rates strategist says. "Long-end EGBs remain under pressure with the curve steepening from both sides," he says. The rates strategist points to the bearish dynamics with long-end Japanese government bonds under renewed pressure this week. Eurozone 10-year government bond yields rise by between 1.6 basis points and 2.6 basis points, with the 10-year German Bund yield up 2.1 basis points at 2.919%, according to Tradeweb.
