"In a monthly comparison, the geopolitically induced dip in sentiment left the linkers cold on balance," the senior fixed income analyst says. By contrast, the eurozone government bond market as a whole gave up most of the gains made in January and February, he says. "Since mid-February, the linkers have thus significantly expanded their slight year-to-date outperformance which they at the start of the year." (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
