English term

bear-steepening

English to Slovak Bus/Financial Finance (general)
The spillover from a pronounced bear-steepening of the US curve is likely
to put pressure on the long end of the German curve but also a further defragmentation within
the euro area will bite into the safe-haven appeal of Bunds.

EXPL. by Investopedia: 'Bear Steepener'
This widening yield curve is similar to a bull steepener except with a bear steepener this is driven by the changes in long-term rates, compared to a bull steepener where short-term rates have a greater effect on the yield curve.

Rýchlejší rast dlhodobých úrokových sadzieb v porovnaní s krátkodobými

úrokovými sadzbami. Prípadne, zaostávanie rastu krátkodobých sadzieb za dlhodobými. Na rozdiel od bull steepening nejde o pokles ale o rast (bez ohľadu na to, že bull sa používa pre long pozície a bear pre short pozície, tu ide o niečo iné)

rýchlejší rast výnosov z dlhopisov s dlhšou splatnosťou v porovnaní s dlhopismi s kratšou splatnosťo

When we say that a bond yield curve is steepening, what we mean is that yields at the long-end (say 30 year bonds) are increasing at a faster rate / falling at a slower rate than yields at the short-end (say two year bonds).

Well, for example, if two year yields rise by 0.05 percent but 30 yields rise by 0.20 percent, then the yield gap between two year bonds and 30 year bonds has increased (or steepened) by 0.15 percent. This would be known as a ‘bear steepening’ since all yields are increasing.
