Gilt Yields Extend Rise Amid Inflation Concerns -- Market Talk
Dow Jones03-23
0828 GMT - Yields on U.K. government bonds rise further, with 10-year yields again hitting their highest since 2008, as high energy prices raise concerns about a possible resurgence in the U.K. inflation. The sharp rise in gilt yields relative to the U.S. and eurozone peers "emphasizes the U.K.'s vulnerable position as a high inflation economy with weak public finances", XTB's Kathleen Brooks says in a note. Ten-year gilt yields jump 7 basis points to 5.065%, a near 18-year high, shortly after the market open, LSEG data show. (miriam.mukuru@wsj.com)
