German 2-year yields fall as Trump tariffs unnerve investors
Feb 2, 2025 11:49 PM

LONDON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Euro zone bond yields fell

in early trade on Monday after U.S. President Donald Trump's

tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China fuelled fears of a trade war

and a lower global growth, prompting investors to seek out

safe-haven assets.

Germany's rate sensitive two-year yield was down 5 bps at

2.063%, in early trading, while the benchmark 10-year

yield was last flat at 2.461%, broadly in the middle

of its recent range.

Italy's 10-year yield was up 1 bps at 3.562%.
