📉 The 10-Year just hit its highest level since November 2023 — and the bond market is screaming. The US 10-year Treasury yield surged to 4.814% on Wednesday, the highest print since late 2023, before settling near 4.79% . This isn't a US-only story — it's a synchronized global bond selloff: Japan's 10-year broke above 3% for the first time in three decades, UK gilts hit levels not seen since the 2008 crisis, and German Bunds touched multi-year highs. Why now? Escalating US–Iran tensions and Strait of Hormuz risk pushed Brent toward $95 — and the market read it as an inflation shock, not a safe-haven one, triggering a Treasury dump. Add a hawkish Fed tone (rate-hike bets for September are climbing), Washington's refusal to tackle a $40T+ deficit, and the "bond vigilantes" demanding a fatter premium on long-dated debt — and you get yields marching toward 5%. The ripple effect: Higher yields raise the discount rate on everything. US equities slipped (Nasdaq -1.03%), Bitcoin fell roughly 10% from its $81K highs to ~$76–77.7K, and the 9-day run of spot BTC ETF inflows snapped. Meanwhile Treasury Secretary Bessent is downplaying the move as fiscal risk repricing — not dysfunction — while markets watch for a possible Operation-Twist-style intervention. Mortgages, car loans, and credit cards all get pricier from here. 🏦 $XAU $BZ $CL #us10yeartreasuryyieldhitshighestsincenov2023 #IranStrikesUSBaseInKuwait #OilSteadiesAfterThreeDayRally #CFTCSeeksToDismissCMEMotionInPerpFutures #USAugADPJobsSmallestGainSinceJan
