Euro zone government bond yields rose on Wednesday due to higher oil prices and concerns about countries' fiscal positions. Germany's 10-year yield rose 6 basis points to 2.66%, while Italy's 10-year yield climbed nearly 9 basis points to 3.7%. Longer-dated bond yields have been rising more than shorter-dated ones, causing yield curves to steepen.
