Treasury yields rise as a broad investor shift away from government debt
Treasury yields rose on Tuesday after a brief dip the previous day, resuming a selling streak as investors continued to move away from U.S. government debt. The 10-year Treasury yield rose nearly 2 basis points to trade at 4.386%. The 2-year Treasury yield also increased by 4 basis points to 3.839%.
The increase in yields comes after a week of volatility in the bond market, which saw more than a 50-point rise in the 10-year Treasury yield—one of the largest two-day increases. Last week, Trump's 90-day tariff announcement caused a dip in yields, but the 10-year yield still returned to 4.5% on Friday.
