U.S. Treasury yields steady amid inflation fears

U.S. Treasury bond yields rose primarily amid concerns over a deterioration in the financial situation in the United States and persistent high inflation levels. The yield on 30-year bonds reached its highest point in about two decades (5.294%), while the 10-year bond yield increased to 4.712%. Additionally, the 2-year bond yield climbed to 4.171%. This came alongside a rise in the U.S. budget deficit to $432.3 billion in July, the highest since March 2021, and interest costs on the national debt reached approximately $1.2 trillion this year. At the same time, the impact of tensions in the Middle East is being closely watched, as the possibility of escalation has led to declines in bond and stock markets. Government bond yields in several countries also increased, serving as an indicator of rising global borrowing costs.
