US 10-Year Yield Edges Lower

2025-10-14 04:20 By Jam Kaimo Samonte 1 min. read

The yield on the US 10-year Treasury note fell to around 4.04% in post-holiday trade on Tuesday, declining for a second session as trade-related uncertainty and expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts supported demand for government debt.

On Friday, yields dropped sharply after President Donald Trump threatened major tariff hikes on China in response to Beijing’s new export controls on rare earth minerals, before later easing his tone and assuring that trade relations “will all be fine.” Both nations have since signaled willingness to resume talks ahead of a possible Trump-Xi meeting in South Korea later this month.

Meanwhile, the prolonged US government shutdown has limited the release of key economic data, leaving investors to look toward upcoming bank earnings for signals on economic momentum.

Markets continue to price in a quarter-point Fed rate cut this month and another reduction in December.

Treasury Yields March Higher on Inflation Concerns
The yield on the US 10-year Treasury note rose 10bps to 4.6% on Friday, reaching a fresh one-year high as concerns over war-driven inflation intensified. The situation in the Middle East remains fragile and far from resolved, with US President Trump describing the first sentence of Iran’s latest proposal as “unacceptable”. As a result, oil prices continued to climb amid fears of disruptions to global supply, with the Strait of Hormuz still closed. Meanwhile, a summit between President Trump and Chinese President Xi ended without any major agreements, including any indication that Beijing would help resolve the conflict. Both the CPI and PPI reports released this week suggested that the energy shock is pushing US inflation higher. Traders are now fully pricing in one rate hike by the Fed in March next year, with more than a 50% chance that interest rates will rise before the end of 2026.
