The yield on French 10-year government bonds has risen above 4.10%, marking its highest level since October 2008, as global fixed income markets face widespread sell-offs. The expiration of the US-Iran ceasefire has pushed oil prices higher, reigniting inflation concerns and driving up borrowing costs.
Deteriorating fiscal conditions in France are adding extra pressure, with interest expenses in the first half of the year reaching 34.5 billion euros—a 19% increase year-on-year—with public debt now accounting for about 118% of GDP. Even if the government achieves its goal of keeping this year’s budget deficit at around 5% of GDP, debt is still expected to rise in the coming years.
Weaker US economic data has lowered expectations for imminent Federal Reserve tightening, in contrast to increasingly hawkish expectations for the European Central Bank.
