U.S. Treasury Yields Stay High as Cooler PPI Fails to Dent Real Rates

U.S. Treasury Yields Stay High as Cooler PPI Fails to Dent Real Rates

U.S. Treasury yields eased only slightly on Wednesday after a surprise fall in producer prices, with the 10-year note around 4.58%, the two-year near 4.16% and the 30-year close to 5.10% in early New York dealing.

Dow Jones moves as oil climbs and rate hike bets rise

The Dow is taking its hit as traders question if blue-chip stocks were set for too easy a run on inflation. U.S.-Iran tensions and higher oil prices kicked things off, but it’s the domino effect that matters: crude up, yields up, Fed hike bets rising, and then big Dow cyclical names are first to get sold. Reuters had the Dow off 514 points at 10:10 a.m. ET. Other quotes had losses nearer to 800 points before the day hit noon.

Yahoo Finance listed the 30-year fixed purchase rate at 6.19% on June 30, a 2 basis-point uptick from the previous day but still the lowest since May. Fortune, citing Optimal Blue lock data for July 1, put the conforming 30-year mortgage at 6.419%.

Fed Keeps Rates Unchanged; All Eyes on Warsh Debut

The Federal Reserve left rates steady Wednesday, holding the federal funds target at 3.50%-3.75%.
