The spread between the Italian BTP
and the German Bund widened further to 150 basis points, up 10
points on yesterday's close, amid tensions across European
sovereign debt.
The spread between the two 10-year bond yields is a gauge of the
market's confidence in Italian debt.
The yield on Italy's 10-year bond stands at 4.16% as political
uncertainty over France and Europe pushes up yields across the
Eurozone.
