**[Global Bond Market Decline Slows, High Yields Attract Investors Back]**
Deep Tide TechFlow reports, on September 3, despite energy prices keeping markets on edge, some investors found it hard to resist as yields approached their highest levels in decades, leading to a rebound in global bond prices. The yield on the UK 10-year government bond fell by 5 basis points to 5.18%, after briefly hitting its highest level since August 2007. Other markets showed more moderate movements, with the German 10-year government bond yield dipping 2 basis points and the US 10-year government bond yield dropping 1 basis point to 4.77%.
Traders are closely monitoring remarks made by Trump on Wednesday, where he hinted that the latest round of conflict between the US and Iran would be short-lived. Earlier this week, oil prices surged significantly, sparking inflation concerns and increasing market bets on rate hikes, which drove global bond yields higher. However, oil prices have since retreated.
Kevin Zhao, Global Head of Sovereign Fixed Income and Currencies at UBS Asset Management, stated that after the yield on Germany's 30-year government bond rose to 3.84% this week, marking its highest level this year, he has been buying into the long end of the German bond yield curve. "This yield level is very attractive," he said. "In times of political crises or heightened tensions, German government bonds can serve as a good safe-haven asset." (Jin10)
