Germany 10-Year Bond Yield – Quote – Chart – Historical Data

Germany’s 10-year Bund yield fell sharply to 2.54%, its lowest level since May 8, as renewed trade tensions and a weakening US fiscal outlook fueled demand for safe-haven assets. The decline followed US President Trump’s announcement that trade talks with the EU are “going nowhere,” alongside a proposal to impose a 50% tariff on EU goods starting June 1st. Investor sentiment was further weighed down by growing concerns over US fiscal stability after the narrow House passage of Trump’s latest tax-cut bill. On the monetary front, the ECB is widely expected to cut interest rates at its June meeting, followed by a likely pause to evaluate the economic impact of potential US tariffs. Economic data from Germany provided mixed signals: first-quarter GDP growth was revised upward, and the Ifo Business Climate Index came in stronger than expected. However, this optimism was dampened by a disappointing German PMI survey, which pointed to a renewed contraction in private sector activity in May.
