Yields on most U.S. government bonds fell Monday, showing further signs of stabilizing after rising to multi-month highs last week.
Yield on a 10-year Finance benchmark note set at 1.444%, according to Tradeweb, down from 1.459% at the end of Friday.
Yields with a shorter date were also lower, in reversal from last week when investors bet that the Federal Reserve would start raising interest rates earlier than previously expected in response to an expected explosion. of economic growth and inflation.
Five-year yield fell to 0.708% on Monday, from 0.775% on Friday. Yields fall as bond prices rise.
Higher yields have helped some investors regain their desire for Treasurys. While Treasury yields were expected to rise this year as the U.S. economy recovered, some analysts say the market’s expectation for flat rates has moved too fast, allowing for investors buy bonds at attractive rates.
