No Image
Treasury yields remained stable as a stronger dollar and firm US data tempered bond buying ahead of key inflation reports next week.
US Treasury yields stabilized overnight, with two-year notes near 3.6 percent and ten-year securities hovering around 4.1 percent. Persistent strength in the dollar reflected investor preference for safety after volatile equity sessions. Analysts remarked that resilient labor data limited appetite for deeper rate cuts. Meanwhile, demand for short-duration debt kept yields from sliding further. Currency strategists said the dollar’s advance could pressure emerging-market assets if sustained. The bond market’s calm tone suggested traders are waiting for next week’s inflation print before repositioning portfolios.
