(ANSA) - Rome, August 2 - The spread between Italy's 10-year
BTP bond and the German Bund leaped up the 250-basis-points mark
on Thursday, the highest level since mid June.
The yield on the BTP went back up to 3%.
The spread had opened at 230 points on Thursday.
The rise appears to be linked to a climate of risk aversion
on the markets ahead of Italy's budget decisions.
