Last week, due to the US government's tariff policy, investors sold off a large number of US Treasury bonds, raising concerns that the US bond market might “collapse,” causing global investors to question America's status as a “capital safe haven.” Normally, when uncertainty in the financial market rises, investors will seek safe haven and buy US Treasury bonds, driving down US Treasury yields. However, data shows that recently, along with significant fluctuations in US stocks, the 10-year US Treasury yield soared by more than 50 basis points to 4.49% in just 5 trading days, marking the biggest weekly increase in more than 20 years. NBC said on the 12th that current fluctuations in US long-term treasury yields are “abnormal,” which indicates that people's “confidence in the US economy is deteriorating.” Higher yields on long-term treasury bonds will push up interest rates on almost all other US loans, will have a direct impact on the American public, and may even threaten the US financial system in the long run.
