Portuguese 10-year government bond yields exceeded 4% this Friday for the first time since March 2017. The benchmark rate peaked at 4.0141% during the afternoon before closing at 3.971%. Investors are selling bonds due to worsening inflation outlooks, which increases the cost for the state to finance its debt.
