From the WSJ: Europe Rates Resume Climb

By Monday afternoon, Spain's [Ten year] debt was being traded at a yield of 6%, or 3.24 percentage points above the rate on German bonds, seen as a risk-free investment. The rate represented an upswing from 5.7% last Thursday, just as news of the new bailout deal for Greece began to emerge. On July 18, the rate hit 6.3%.

Italy was paying 5.5%, up from 5.2% on Thursday, but down from 5.8% on July 18.

Yields moved higher today, but are still below the previous peaks. The Greek 2 year yield is up to 28.1% (was above 39%).

The Portuguese 2 year yield is down to 15.3% (was above 20%)

The Irish 2 year yield is up to 15.4% (was above 23%).

The Italian 2 year yield is up to 4.0%. And the Spanish 2 year yield is up to 4.2%.
