Tickmill analyst Patrick Munnelly said an acceleration in government bond yields
could weigh on risk assets. The US 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.148%
intraday, the highest since 2007, signaling markets are pricing in further Fed
hikes in coming months. LSEG data shows strong growth and inflation concerns
have pushed expectations for multiple rate increases by major central banks over
the next year. Munnelly warned that if yields keep climbing and refresh cycle
highs, risk-asset performance will face pressure even amid positive developments
on AI or trade.
