what happened

The US dollar and Treasury yields rose slightly in midday trading in Europe, according to Market Talk. The greenback drew support from higher oil prices, since the US is a net oil exporter, and from demand for the dollar as a safe haven.

Treasury yields recovered after a sharp drop the previous day. Their safe-haven appeal could return as concerns grow over the sustainability of AI investment and falling stock markets.

why it matters

VT Markets Dubai analyst Mahmoud Mashal said that “concerns over how technology companies will finance the AI build-out” could limit any meaningful rebound in yields. Per Tradeweb, the 10-year Treasury yield rose 2.9 basis points to 4.982%, while the DXY index climbed 0.2% to 101.763. For markets, higher oil and safe-haven demand push the dollar up, while AI funding worries pull yields in the opposite direction.
