Bond yields fell after Treasury market showed investor confidence

The drop in yields implies a lower cost of capital, with borrowing costs reflecting factors beyond inflation and the Iran war.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Economy

MarketWatch reports that bond yields fell as investors appeared to have maintained confidence in the Treasury market after a key test.

The outlet also notes that higher bond yields are not only tied to inflation and the Iran war, and that when yields rise they can increase the cost of capital.
