U.K. government bond yields rise following slow GDP growth

Investing.com — The yields on U.K. government bonds have seen an increase following the revelation of slow GDP growth in November and stagnant growth over the three months leading up to November.

This increase comes after a significant drop in gilt yields on Wednesday, which was a response to lower-than-expected inflation data from both the U.K. and U.S.

Despite the lower inflation data, analysts maintain that concerns about inflation continue to persist.

Data from Tradeweb indicates that the 10-year gilt yield has risen 1.5 basis points to 4.730%. This movement in bond yields reflects the current economic conditions and the ongoing concerns regarding inflation.
