September 28, 2026 - Yields Hit a 19-Year High as the Energy Shock Deepens
Description
The bond market is flashing a warning investors can’t ignore.
Treasury yields are pushing to levels not seen in nearly two decades, while renewed pressure across energy markets threatens to complicate the inflation outlook and keep financial conditions tighter for longer.

With borrowing costs climbing and inflation risks returning to the foreground, markets are being forced to confront a question they had hoped was behind them: what happens if higher for longer becomes higher still?
