La venta masiva de bonos a nivel mundial se agudiza ante los temores inflacionarios

Global massive issuance of bonds intensified due to inflationary fears, with United Kingdom bond costs reaching their highest level since 2008 and Japanese yields hitting levels unseen since the 1990s, according to wire material. The massive bond sales surged on Tuesday, positioning United Kingdom 10-year bond yields at their highest since the global financial crisis and Japanese 30-year bond yields at their highest since the late 1990s, due to investors' expectations that central banks would accelerate interest rate hikes to combat inflation caused by rising energy prices.

The 10-year British bond yield rose by 0.09 percentage points to 5.24%, the highest since the financial crisis, while the 30-year bond yield increased by 0.1 percentage points to 5.89%, the highest since the late 1990s. The 10-year Japanese bond yield reached 3%, the highest since 1996, while the US Treasury 10-year bond yield rose by 0.03 percentage points to 4.79%.

These movements occurred after a fresh escalation of the conflict in the Middle East and an increase in expectations that central banks would raise interest rates to combat inflation from rising energy prices.
