PIMCO: There's A 'Perfect Storm' Coming For Bond Markets

Bond markets are heading for a "perfect storm," according to Andrew Bosomworth, head of PIMCO's German portfolio management.

The cost of servicing Greece's government debt is now at its highest level in 2014 so far, pretty much killing the government's plan to leave its bailout early.
