- 10-year Treasury yield climbed to a fresh 24-year high as a selloff in U.S. government bonds accelerated.
- A solid 10-year note auction eased demand fears, causing the bond selloff to subside and yields to back off their intraday highs.
Why it matters: The auction outcome was the pivot point of the session — a strong result reversed the yield spike and signaled that investor appetite for U.S. debt remains intact at multi-decade-high rate levels. Had demand come in weak, the selloff would have deepened, amplifying pressure on equities and borrowing costs across the economy.
