U.S. Treasury yields retreated from an eight-month high on Thursday while the dollar strengthened against major currencies, as investors reevaluated the Federal Reserve's interest rate policy for 2025 as the U.S. economy shows signs of resilience.

Bond traders who have been mired in a Treasury market slump are bracing for more of the same as Donald Trump’s inauguration approaches, with options indicating the potential for a spike in US 10-year yields to 5% — a level not seen since October 2023.

Dreyfuss LONDON/NEW YORK (Reuters) -A sharp selloff in some of the world's biggest government bond markets and a continued rise in the dollar sent shockwaves through financial markets, with the pain seen deepening as uncertainty grows over U.

Markets see just one rate cut coming in 2025 amid a confluence of strong economic data and the potential for Trump's economic plans to stoke inflation.

The biggest story in finance is that longer-term bond yields are rising. The yield on the 10-year Treasury, at about 4.7%, is the highest since April, even though the Federal Reserve’s overnight rate is now a percentage point lower than it was then.
