 Speculation that the ECB might restart buying government bonds helped send Italian yields lower in an auction of €5.48B ($6.749) of debt with differing maturities. The cost of 10-year paper dropped to 5.96% from 6.19% in a sale in June, while the bid-to-cover ratio edged up to 1.29 from 1.28. Yields on five-year paper dropped to 5.29% from 5.84%.
