Corporate bondholders in Europe confiscate 0.2 p.c in August, the fourth month of losses in a very year that’s poised to come up with the worst returns since 2008.

Investment-grade debt in euros is returning zero.8 p.c to date this year compared with nine p.c within the same amount of 2012, Bank of America Merrill kill index knowledge show. Average yields on the securities jumped 9 basis points this month to two.04 percent, close to the very best in seven weeks, whereas yields on junk-rated bonds climbed fourteen basis points to four.9 percent, in line with Bloomberg index knowledge.
