$PLTR -…The US debt market is reflecting a significant increase in risk. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed 4 basis points to 4.66%, while the 2-year yield climbed 2 basis points to 4.3% - both at the highest levels recorded since January 2025.
Bloomberg reported yesterday that the 30-year Treasury yield has been trading above 5% for the longest time since 2007, just before the outbreak of the US economic crisis. According to data compiled by Bloomberg, so far this year, the 30-year bond has traded above 5% for 27 days, or about 19% of all trading days, the highest since 2007. That year, it traded above that level for 50 days.
However, the report noted that unlike in 2007, the current Federal Reserve interest rate is now 150 basis points lower, suggesting that investors are demanding even higher compensation to hold the longest-maturity bond sold by the Treasury Department than at the beginning of the subprime crisis.
