- The spread between French 10-year government bonds and German 10-year government bonds briefly approached 160 basis points, and Moody's will make a decision on France's sovereign credit rating this weekend [evidence:344340]
- As of the end of the second quarter of this year, France's public debt approached 3.6 trillion euros, equivalent to 119% of GDP, rising further from the first quarter [evidence:344340]
- Another French media outlet reported that the French 10-year government bond yield broke through 5% for the first time since 2002, that the violence of October 17-18 worsened the situation, and that investors' doubts about France's ability to put its finances in order have increased (Source: France 24 #3) [evidence:344559]
Key Events
- France's 10-year government bond yield broke through 5% on the 21st, hitting a new high since 2002 [evidence:344340]

Watch / Outlook
France's 2027 draft budget is under review in the National Assembly, and officials have confirmed a 54 billion euro spending-cut plan, but judging from the review process it is unlikely to win a parliamentary majority [evidence:344340]; next, watch whether Moody's rating decision and the budget review change the deficit path.
Linkage
France's 10-year yield broke through 5%, and its spread over German bonds briefly approached 160 basis points [evidence:344340] / watch changes in the issuance costs of the roughly 340 billion euros in medium- and long-term bonds the French government plans to issue in 2027.
