2-year Treasury yields +6.4 bps to 2.584%
5-year Treasury yields +6.5 bps to 2.822%
10-year Treasury yields +5.6 bps to 2.771%
30-year Treasury yields +2.8 bps to 2.774%
And it doesn’t just stop there. It’s a global push as we are seeing 10-year German bund yields are at its highest since 2018 while 10-year French bond yields are at their highest since 2015. Meanwhile, 10-year JGB yield are also approaching the BOJ’s implicit yield cap at 0.25% once again.
