Market Moves: 10-Year German Inflation-Linked Bond Surges
Today witnessed a significant market shift as the 10-year German inflation-linked bond surged by more than 1%, juxtaposed with a 0.5% drop in the 10-year German nominal yield. This move can be attributed to the recent announcement from the German Federal Government to cease sales of inflation-linked bonds starting from 2024.
