Euro zone long-dated yields keep climbing higher
Sep 2, 2025 12:37 AM

LONDON, Sept 2 (Reuters) - Euro zone long-dated bond

yields, already at their highest in more than a decade,

continued their relentless march higher on Tuesday, as traders

awaited inflation data for the currency bloc.

Germany's 30-year bond yield rose 3 basis points to 3.39%.

It is trading at its highest since 2011, as are

super-long-dated bonds from other euro zone economies, as

investors fret about the sustainability of the debt of several

countries in Europe and around the world.

Germany's 10-year yield, the euro zone benchmark

also rose 2 bps to 2.77%.

Euro zone inflation data was due at 0900 GMT, though was

unlikely to offer too many surprises to traders or the European

Central Bank, after national inflation data showed it coming in

broadly around the ECB's 2% target.

Nonetheless, in an interview with Reuters, ECB policymaker

Isabel Schnabel warned inflation in the coming months may

surpass the ECB's expectations.

For that reason, and because the economy was holding its own

in the face of U.S. tariffs, she said she saw no reason for any

more ECB rate cuts.

The ECB snapped a year-long easing cycle in July, though

market pricing still shows some chance of one further cut in the

coming months.

Germany's rate-sensitive 2-year yield rose 2 bps to 1.97%.
