US 10-Year Yield Holds Advance

2026-02-03 02:49 By Jam Kaimo Samonte 1 min. read

The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note held around 4.27% on Tuesday, following a sharp rise in the previous session, as strong U.S.

economic data pushed back expectations for the Fed to cut rates.

Monday’s data showed a surprise expansion in US factory activity, signaling strength for the economy and corporate profits.

Investors now turn to Friday’s monthly jobs report, although its release could be delayed by a partial government shutdown.

Last Friday, President Donald Trump nominated Kevin Warsh to succeed Fed Governor Jerome Powell.

Markets view Warsh as a relatively hawkish pick who may favor lower interest rates, though less aggressively than other candidates.

Warsh is also seen as an inflation hawk and previously opposed expanding the Fed’s balance sheet during the global financial crisis, a stance that contributed to a widening of the US yield curve at the start of the month.

US 10-Year Yield Rebounds Past 5%
The yield on the 10-year US Treasury rose past the 5% threshold, extending the rebound from a near-two-month low of 4.84% on November 5th after hot inflation data consolidated bets that the Fed will deliver multiple additional rate hikes in the current cycle. Both headline and core consumer prices rose more than expected in October, adding to evidence that soaring energy prices are being transmitted into core sectors of a resilient economy. The data followed hawkish comments from Fed Governor Waller, who said he would support a 50bps increase in December if inflation continued to accelerate. Also, Dallas Fed President Logan supported at least two additional 25bps increases. Treasury yields of all maturities had already rebounded this week as markets regained risk sentiment following a brief flight to safety after the Democratic Party gained control of Congress, driving markets to reconsider advances in the tech sector that has carried investment in the US economy.

Treasury Yields Fluctuate

Meanwhile, oil prices continued to decline, helping ease concerns over further inflationary pressures.
