The move is notable less for France's absolute yield than for its breadth: Italian, Spanish and Greek paper sold off alongside it, pointing to a bloc-wide repricing rather than a France-specific story. The steeper long end suggests duration, not near-term policy expectations, is doing the work. Whether that broad correlation holds, or whether spreads start to diverge again, is the open question worth watching.
