US Treasury yields hit two-decade highs as bond market braces for prolonged higher rates.

US Treasury yields surged to their highest levels in over 20 years, with the 10-year yield reaching 5.34%, driven by strong economic data, inflation concerns, and fiscal debt worries. Despite this bond selloff, stock markets remain resilient, reflecting investor confidence in economic strength rather than weakness. The Federal Reserve is expected to hold rates steady until December but markets price in multiple hikes by 2027. Additionally, the unwinding of the Japanese yen carry trade is pressuring bonds, exposing governments to the true cost of borrowing after years of cheap money policies.

US Treasury yields and their recent surge provide context for market conditions. For readers following US stocks, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 01, 2026 18:14 WIB: Of 150 priced US stocks tradable on Pluang, 87 rose and 55 fell today.
