10-year bund yields fall to a record low of -0.33%

Germany's 10-year bond yields

No reprieve for yield-seekers in Europe as the bond rally continues to gather pace amid softer risk tone in markets today. 10-year bund yields just hit a record low of -0.33% as the free fall looks set to continue unless we hear of more optimistic signs from US-China trade talks later on in the week.

Nonetheless, this adds to more reason why gold remains a standout performer today and over the past few weeks.
