Europe -- CDS and yields

PIIGS credit default swap info, from MarketTicker: "CDS spreads on the PIIGS (composite), ...is up an astounding 60% today"

And from Mish, bond yields:
"On a spread-basis, the only country whose yields have collapsed is Ireland.
Italy, Belgium, France and Spain are at or close to spread highs. Also note how France is creeping up.

On 1-year spreads, Italy, Spain, and Belgium are at new highs, suggesting the ECB is losing the containment war on Italian bond yields."
