0653 GMT - Eurozone government bond yields decline in early trading, benefiting from a rally in Japanese government bonds as well as lower oil prices as concerns about Middle East tensions ease slightly. Japanese bond yields fell after Finance Minister Katayama said the government will encourage pension funds to invest more in local financial assets, helping to reverse recent increases in yields. Government bond issuance will come from Italy, while France and Spain will announce details of their respective auctions for next Thursday. The 10-year Bund yield falls 2.2 basis points to 3.035%. Declines in other 10-year eurozone government bond yields are of similar magnitude, according to Tradeweb. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
