The spread between Italy's 10-year
BTP bond and the German Bund dropped to 219 basis points, with a
yield of 2.6%, in early trading on Monday.
The spread, an important measure of investor confidence,
closed at 226 points on Friday, when Premier Giuseppe Conte's
5-Star Movement/League executive was sworn in.
The Milan's stock exchange's FTSE Mib index, meanwhile,
gained 1.1% soon after the opening of trading on Monday.
But it lost much of the ground and was up by 0.3% after an
hour and a half of business.
