According to BlockBeats, market analysts have noted that the rising yields on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds are contributing to heightened market anxiety. As trading progresses this week, the increase in yields is maintaining a tense risk sentiment among traders and investors. Confidence in reaching any short-term trade agreements is waning, and U.S. assets are experiencing significant impacts.
The bond market has previously influenced U.S. President Donald Trump to pause on tariff issues. However, after two weeks of turmoil, the current situation remains challenging. Essentially, a standoff is occurring between Trump and the Federal Reserve, with one side needing to make concessions in what is described as a "game of chicken."
If Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and his colleagues decide to intervene by purchasing U.S. Treasuries, it could provide temporary relief. However, such a move would signal that Trump's firm stance on tariffs is likely to persist.
