Bond Yields Keep Rising Despite Falling Oil and Dovish Fed
Original: Bond Yields Keep Rising Despite Drop in Oil Price, Dovish Fed Speech https://www.wsj.com/finance/investing/bond-yields-k
US Treasury bond yields continue to climb even after oil prices dropped and a Federal Reserve official delivered a dovish speech that would normally push rates down. The persistence of rising yields is puzzling investors, who expected easing inflation pressure from cheaper oil and a friendly Fed tone to calm the bond market. The move keeps pressure on borrowing costs for households, companies and the US government.
Why now: Investors and markets watchers are alarmed that bond yields are defying factors that should push them lower, signaling deeper concerns about deficits or inflation.
