In the latest trading across global financial markets today, the yield on 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds surged 6 basis points in a single day, reaching 5.7041%. This long-term benchmark rate has not only extended its recent sharp upward trend, but also directly set its highest level since 2002, signaling a major restructuring of the global risk-free rate system.
The latest surge in long-term Treasury yields to a more than 20-year high fully reflects structural concerns about persistent long-term inflation and the massive supply of government debt. Market participants are reassessing the term premium required to hold Treasuries over the long term, while optimism that the economy would quickly enter an easing cycle is being thoroughly overturned by harsh reality.
As the “anchor of global asset pricing,” the continued rise in long-term Treasury yields is having a significant tightening effect on the global financial system. Elevated risk-free returns have not only sharply increased long-term financing costs for the real economy and financial institutions, but have also weighed heavily on high-valuation equities, while accelerating the return of global liquidity to dollar-denominated fixed-income assets.
For crypto assets, marginally tighter liquidity and high borrowing costs are extremely severe macroeconomic headwinds. Against a backdrop of traditional institutional capital shifting toward high-yield fixed-income assets, risk assets such as $BTC face potential valuation pressure and liquidity outflows. Market participants must remain highly cautious about potential further downward deleveraging volatility.
