For eight months 88 straight months in June here in the US -- down across the board.

And five year bonds but.

The call came in with an average yield higher than in private -- prior auctions also the yield on Spain's ten year -- -- six point 61%.

That's there are down across the board as you can see but now let's take a closer look at why without part -- senior market analyst James Hughes.

Over in London James we -- -- -- off more bonds than expected but again at a higher yield than before so what should investors make of this.

I mean is good news and bad news in terms of base and and that's really mom's a little bit mixed on it to be perfectly honest and of course.

I -- absolutely no surprise that we've got.

Members of the Euro -- high ranking members of the Euro -- disagreeing with each -- -- mean.

This is -- the issue while we've had such such a problem that -- this is such a long time because no one ever seems to be -- of those over the same -- -- -- -- always -- -- no one agrees with each -- and I don't think there's a better -- -- about things now.

There's always been the case is well within these euros and the one thing get said in -- almost get -- a few weeks lights are wrong side again.

The -- just just.

Get up on the suppose we see anything not based on the scene and see anyone disagree or someone changed their mind in the eurozone is a very sceptical views from every one on.

On what if anything and anger who says or any any leader says it was especially now in Greece this new.

Government anything I say always met with skepticism because we've been through this Sunday Times now and nothing he's going to.

Is nothing nothing has changed and it looks like nothing's gonna change in the -- haven't.

The big question might be a huge question ever want to exhaust Munis is how you sell -- and of course now and still doesn't announced that.

Not a fact that people don't think they can trust but they've they've probably doesn't help -- -- gains for that day here that I am loved Mario relented gave does great having on banks.
