(Reuters) - Euro zone yields hit fresh multi-year highs on Wednesday, and Germany's real yield rose above zero for the first time since 2015, on expectations of monetary tightening and concerns a potential increase in public spending would increase supply of bonds.

Germany's 10-year government bond yield, the benchmark of the bloc, was up 5 basis points (bps) at 2.3% after hitting a fresh nearly 11-year high at 2.309%.
