1025 GMT - Steeper bond curves and some stabilization of German government bond yields at current levels are the most likely scenario for now, MFS Investment Management's Annalisa Piazza says. That said, markets are expected to continue to price in some increase in bond supply in Germany and potentially an increase in the inflation premium, the fixed income research analyst says. Germany's infrastructure and defense spending is expected to support growth in the medium term, she says in a note. "Obviously fiscal changes are only one of the factors that move markets nowadays." The 10-year Bund yield last trades 8 basis points higher at 2.865%, according to Tradeweb. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
