30-Year Treasury Yield Hits 19-Year High Amidst Economic Concerns
The 30-year US Treasury yield has reached its highest point since 2007, trading at 5.2%, as inflation fears stemming from the Iran war grip the bond market. This surge is prompting investors to demand higher yields, leading to rising borrowing costs across the economy, impacting everything from mortgages to business loans. Concerns over persistent price hikes, coupled with global energy shocks and expanding government deficits, have fueled a significant sell-off in Treasury bonds. The bond market’s turbulence also poses a headwind for stocks, which are experiencing increased volatility.
