10-year Treasury yields extend climb, touches 1.90% for the first time in two years

  • The selloff in the bond market has been unrelenting

Yields, yields, yields.

That has been the story this week and arguably the big story so far in the opening weeks of 2022. 10-year Treasury yields are finding another leg higher today, jumping to a high of 1.90% - the highest in two years - as we see yields return back to pre-pandemic levels.

The surge higher in Treasury yields has also translated to significant action in bond markets elsewhere around the globe; the most notable this week being German 10-year bund yields turning positive once again since 2019.

From the technicals, there isn't much stopping 10-year Treasury yields from hitting 1.97% next with the 2.00% level arguably the key psychological level to watch in case we see the bond selloff deepen in the days/weeks ahead.
