LONDON, July 30 (Reuters) - Euro zone bond yields were
little changed on Tuesday morning, as investors waited for July
inflation data from member states and looked ahead to the U.S.
Federal Reserve's interest rate decision on Wednesday.
Germany's 10-year bond yield, the benchmark for
the euro zone bloc, held broadly steady at 2.363%, just above a
six-week low. Yields move inversely to prices.
Preliminary July inflation data for Spain is due at 0700
GMT, followed by figures from individual German states at 0800
GMT and euro zone second-quarter GDP data at 0900 GMT. Euro zone
inflation data is due out at 0900 GMT on Wednesday.
Italy's 10-year yield also held steady at
3.714%, and the gap between Italian and German bond yields
stood at 135 bps.
Germany's two-year bond yield, which is more
sensitive to European Central Bank rate expectations, was very
slightly higher at 2.6%.
