Germany 10-Year Bund Auction
In most cases, a government bond is issued by a national government and is denominated in the currency of the country. Sovereign bonds are bonds that get issued by national governments in foreign currencies. It is the expectation of inflation and the possibility of debt repayment that determines the yield required by investors to lend funds to governments.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the EUR while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the EUR.
