Global Bond Selloff Worsens as Rising Oil Prices Spook Investors

 


Government bond markets tumbled around the world, sending yields surging from Japan to the US on intensifying fears that the war-driven price shock will force central banks to raise interest rates to contain the impact.

The rout was led by longer-dated bonds that are the most vulnerable to accelerating inflation, sending 30-year US Treasury yields to the cusp of their 2023 peak. US 10-year yields rose 12 basis points to 4.6%, capping the biggest weekly jump since President Donald Trump’s tariffs threw markets into a tailspin in April 2025.
