U.S. long-dated Treasury yields jumped to their highest in more than 20 years on Thursday as a global bond selloff deepened, Reuters reported. The 30-year Treasury yield climbed to just over 5.46% \u2014 about 5.458%, the highest since 2004 \u2014 while the benchmark 10-year hit 5.14% after touching a 19-year high. U.S. 30-year mortgage rates reached 7%, around their highest in two years. Oil returned to about $105 a barrel, NBC News reported, amid the Middle East war.<\/p>\n
Drivers include high energy costs, resilient growth, and heavy government spending. The selloff accelerated after strong U.S. business-activity data pointed to rising inflation pressures and stoked Federal Reserve rate-hike bets. New York Fed President John Williams, speaking in London, said the economy was showing \u201cremarkable resilience,\u201d and that markets viewing another rate hike by year-end as likely \u201cseems\u2026 a reasonable way of thinking,\u201d while stressing the decision remains data-dependent.<\/p>\n
Stocks have been under pressure as yields climbed. Rising long-term rates raise borrowing costs for governments, companies, and households just as energy prices stay elevated.<\/p>\n
