Global bond rout cools but borrowing costs hold at multi-decade highs

from Squawk Box Europe Express

The global rout in bonds eases somewhat but yields on sovereign debt remain at highs not seen for decades. Investors now turn their attention to UK inflation data and last month’s FOMC minutes. Equities also sell off Stateside and in Asia, especially in chip stocks, while European futures are firmly in the red. Chinese humanoid developer Unitree sees its shares balloon by more than 600 per cent on its Shanghai market debut as China showcases its ambitions for its national robotics industry.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
