U.S. President Donald Trump has predicted that the war in Iraq will conclude within two to three weeks, leading to a significant drop in oil prices. According to Jin10, this development has eased market concerns about the ongoing conflict. As a result, UK and European government bonds have surged, with yields falling across the board. Yields on French, Italian, and UK bonds have decreased by 10 basis points or more. Germany's 10-year benchmark bond yield fell by 6 basis points to 2.94%, marking its lowest level since March 18. ING strategists, including Benjamin Schroeder, noted in a report that the market is closely watching whether the communication signals from both sides of the conflict will lead to a tangible de-escalation. However, the speed at which energy supplies can fully recover remains uncertain due to the damage already inflicted.
