Interesting topic, not much there there in the “story”.
Art of misdirection. Saying the middle east war is effecting bond yields is trying to cover up the real truth about the feds financial mistakes.
The U.S Treasury sells bonds via auction and yields are set through a bidding process. Prices for the bonds drop when confidence is high, which causes yields to rise. This is because investors feel they can find higher-returning investments elsewhere and do not feel they need to play it safe.
When confidence is low, bond prices rise and yields fall, as there is more demand for this safe investment. Put simply, falling yields indicate caution in the markets. Just another red flag to the US economy being shanghaied by the feds.
