Spain 10-Year Bond Yields
After hitting a low of just above 4% earlier this year, the yield is now back above 5%.
Italy 10-Year Bond Yields
After falling as low as 4.68% today, the yield close up slightly at 4.86%. The April low was 3.76%.
Germany 10-Year Bond Yields
The yield on the Germany 10-Year government bond is 1.80, up from a year-low of 1.17%.
Thus sovereign rates are up 63 basis points in Germany, but over 100 basis points (a full percentage point) in Spain and Italy.
France 10-Year Bond Yields
Even France is up relative to Germany, from 1.66% to 2.46%, a rise of 80 basis points.
In theory, all sovereign debt in the eurozone should trade at the same yield. Clearly theory is one thing, and practice another. And the divergences are getting worse.
