Treasury yields are rising to new highs after investors expressed disappointment that the Treasury Department's expanded bond buyback program isn't larger. The 10-year yield approached 4.85%, its highest level since 2023, after Treasury said it would buy back up to $6 billion in longer-term debt at its Thursday buyback operation. Some expected a larger buyback, which could have calmed yields down a bit more.

Treasury yields—the interest rates investors receive for holding U.S. debt—influence how much consumers and businesses pay to borrow money. Lenders use those yields as a benchmark for setting rates on mortgages and auto loans. They also undergird yields on the corporate bonds that companies use for funding. 🏦 That means the Treasury selloff risks pushing borrowing costs higher, making it even harder for Americans to afford homes and cars. If the selloff persists, that could start to affect a stock-market rally that has helped support consumer spending and the artificial-intelligence spending boom.

the Fed is widely expected to keep rates on hold after three consecutive cuts. Investors will look for hints about when the central bank could cut again, and for comments by Chair Jerome Powell about the Justice Department probe he faces. The dollar regained some ground. It slid Tuesday, with losses accelerating after President Trump said he wasn't concerned about currency declines.

ngesichts der zunehmenden politischen Unsicherheit in den USA dürften Investoren ihre US-Bestände jedoch wahrscheinlich weiter schrittweise diversifizieren. "In Verbindung mit der wachsenden Staatsverschuldung der USA kann dies zu einem Aufwärtsdruck auf die Risikoprämien für künftige Anleiheemissionen führen", betonte Sievert. "Dies erhöht die Anfälligkeit der Staatsfinanzen, da die Zinsaufwendungen weiter steigen." ---- Der dänische Pensionsfonds AkademikerPension hatte gestern angekündigt, seine gesamten Bestände an US-Staatsanleihen im Wert von rund 100 Millionen Dollar zu verkaufen.
