Nasdaq surge set to prompt junk bond rally

Europe's high-yield bond market, dominated by TMT companies, has shadowed Nasdaq for much of this year. Nasdaq shot up 10.5% on Tuesday on the back of indications that US interest rates will remain steady this year, possibly rising in the first quarter. High yield officials have been discussing how the market would react.
