Treasury Yields Rise as Fed Signals Uncertainty

U.S. Treasury yields edged higher Thursday as markets parsed the Federal Reserve’s second rate cut this year and mixed signals about December. The 10-year rose more than 3 basis points to 4.095%, the 2-year gained over 2 to 3.608%, and the 30-year added more than 5 to 4.651%. The FOMC voted 10-2 to lower the benchmark rate to 3.75%-4% despite limited data amid a government shutdown. Chair Jerome Powell noted “strongly differing views” and said another cut next month is “not a foregone conclusion.” Investors watched a Trump–Xi trade meeting in South Korea that ended on a positive note.
