U.S. Treasury bonds resumed their decline on Wednesday, with the 30-year yield rising back to its highest level since 2002. Rising oil prices have intensified market concerns over a resurgence in inflation and the possibility of further interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. The sell-off in the U.S. bond market has also spread to Europe. The yield on the UK’s 30-year government bond has climbed back to 6%, and the yield on France’s equivalent bond increased by as much as 14 basis points. The yield on U.S. 30-year Treasuries reached 5.72%. Evelyne Gomez-Liechti, Multi-Asset Strategist at Mizuho International, stated, “We still believe the market is caught between two factors: on one hand, current absolute levels of Treasury yields are already quite attractive; on the other hand, the logic behind rising oil prices has never gone away.”
