UK 10-year gilt yield edges up to 5.449% in late European trade
AI take
The move is small in headline terms but notable for its shape: the front end sold off hardest, with the two-year giving back a deeper intraday dip, while the long end barely budged. That points to repricing of near-term rate expectations rather than any shift in the long-run inflation or issuance story, and the narrower 2s/10s spread reinforces it. Whether the front end keeps leading — and whether the long end stays this inert — is the open question for anyone tracking UK duration.
