Las preocupaciones por la inflación desencadenan ventas masivas en los bonos globales, con el rendimiento de los bonos del Tesoro a largo plazo de EE. UU. alcanzando su nivel más alto en casi tres años

Golden Finance reports that on May 18th, due to investors’ concerns about accelerating inflation triggering a sell-off in the global bond markets, the yield on U.S. long-term government bonds rose to its highest level in nearly three years. After U.S. President Trump pressured Iran to reach an agreement to end the Iran war, causing oil prices to continue rising, the yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond temporarily increased by 4 basis points to 5.16%, reaching the highest level since October 2023. The yields on the 10-year and 2-year government bonds respectively touched 4.63% and 4.10%, the highest since February 2025. In Japan, the 30-year Japanese government bond yield soared by 20 basis points to 4.2%, the highest since issuance in 1999. Bond traders often view the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield of 5% as a “dividing line,” believing that this level will attract bottom-fishing buyers. Guneet Dhingra, head of U.S. interest rate strategy at BNP Paribas, stated: “Above 5% has no anchoring point.” He advised clients to focus on the trading range of 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds between 5.25% and 5.5%.
