(ANSA) - Rome, September 6 - The spread between Italian and
German 10-year bond yields, a gauge of Italy's borrowing costs
and of market confidence in the Italian economy, closed two
points up on 167 points Wednesday, with the yield up 0.01% to
2.04%.
The lower the spread is, the better it is for the Italian
economy and debt-servicing costs.
The spread rose above 200 points recently on EU populist
fears.
