Germany’s 10-year Bund yield, the benchmark for European borrowing costs, climbed above 2.9% on Monday, moving toward its highest level since 2011. The rise came as oil prices surged past $100 a barrel, heightening concerns that an escalating conflict in the Middle East could trigger prolonged disruptions to global energy supplies and intensify inflationary pressures. Major oil producers in the region have curtailed output as the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut, with no clear resolution to the conflict in sight. Investors have been revising inflation expectations since hostilities erupted last week, reinforcing bets that the European Central Bank may adopt a more restrictive policy stance. Several policymakers also warned that a prolonged war involving Iran and other countries could push eurozone inflation higher while weighing on economic growth. Markets are now even considering the possibility of an ECB rate hike in July, followed by another increase in December.
