The previous week’s rally in US government bond markets, that may have heralded a change in sentiment towards the Federal Reserve in its fight against inflation, was repeated around the world. British government bonds followed their US brethren upwards after the release of UK inflation data that showed a surprising decline in so-called core inflation, which excludes more volatile components such as food and fuel. Eurozone sovereign bonds then had their own rally after the release of business activity surveys for the Eurozone that indicated a sharp slowdown in growth and, therefore, in inflationary pressures.

Stocks featured:
