English term

yields continued to move in

English Bus/Financial Finance (general) Real Estate Fund Manager Report
Stronger performance in the Eurozone in 2005 compared to 2004 was a reflection of higher capital return. ***Yields continued to move in*** as managers sought to place investors’ capital in a highly competitive investment market. In general the office market, which accounts for around 65% of the Eurozone commercial real estate market, performed better in 2005 than in 2004 though within each country this was most often below the return of the retail sector.

Thank you!

It'a review I am doing and I am not sure if the choice of the translator is correct (in the target language she wrote that yields are going down).

yields continued to fall

The way yields are calculated, nominal value divided by the market value multiplied by the rate, would mean that when market value of property increases due to demand, the morgage yield would fall.

los rendimientos continuaron acercándose/aumentando

"Move in", literamente, en este contexto es "draw closer". Ahora bien, por como está estructurado el análisis, parecería que los "yields" aumentaron, acercándose a algo que, imagino, es un parámetro del análisis....

returns continued to decline

The way I understand this figure of speech, market returns are declining, reducing the spread over the risk-free yield. This is consistent with an excess of capital 'chasing' returns.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Richard Benham : This is how I would understand the term on its own, and your argument is very persuasive, until I look back the the previous sentence with its "higher capital return". Reminds me of my shares: the dividends remain constant but the yields keep increasing.
