U.S. Treasury yields hit 24-year highs as 10-year reaches 5.35% and 30-year climbs to 5.73%
U.S. Treasury yields hit 24-year highs (10Y 5.35%, 30Y 5.73%), intensifying a global bond selloff and tightening financial conditions. Equities weakened across Europe and the U.S. as higher yields imply higher discount rates and funding costs, with focus on the day's $39B 10-year auction for demand signals. Brent above $102 adds inflation sensitivity, while IMF debt warnings and AI-driven borrowing reinforce upward yield pressure.
