Gilt Yields Rise Ahead of U.S. Jobs Data -- Market Talk

1259 GMT - Yields on U.K. government bonds, or gilts, climb along with their U.S. and eurozone peers ahead of the U.S. non-farm payrolls data due at 1330 GMT. Strong jobs data could raise the prospects of interest-rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve, which could push up Treasury yields, Capital.com's Daniela Hathorn says in a note. "Conversely, weaker employment could ease rate expectations, although a sufficiently disappointing report might also deepen concerns about the economic outlook." Ten-year gilt yields rise 2 basis points to last trade at 5.163%, Tradeweb data show. (miriam.mukuru@wsj.com)
