Treasury yields surged to the highest levels since 2007 on fiscal concerns and rising corporate borrowing, tightening financial conditions. Meanwhile, Iran-related geopolitical risk pushed oil up over $2, adding inflation and risk-premia pressure and reinforcing defensive positioning across rates, FX, and stocks.
