TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

The yield on the German 10-year Bund edged higher to approach 0.4% in the fourth week of March, a level not seen since November of 2018, as investors weigh central banks’ tightening cycles, with the odds rising the European Central Bank will raise rates this year to fight inflationary pressures. Money markets are now pricing two quarter-point hikes in 2022, compared with smaller than one such increase at the start of the month, Bloomberg reported. Inflation in the Euro Area is already running at record highs and is now likely to be more persistent on the back of higher commodity prices and a tight labor market. Meanwhile, traders continue to follow talks between Russia and Ukraine on a possible ceasefire.
