US 10-Year Treasury Yield Hits 19-Year High Amid Strong Economic Data and Market Reactions
The US 10-year Treasury yield rose above 5.05%, reaching its highest level since 2007, driven by strong US services and manufacturing PMI data. This increase raised concerns about potential Federal Reserve rate hikes and pressured equity markets, especially growth and technology stocks. Concurrently, oil prices climbed following remarks by Iran's president at the UN. Asian markets showed mixed reactions, with India’s Nifty expected to open lower despite recent gains. The US-China tariff truce was extended until January 10, ahead of a scheduled summit.
