What happened
The US 10-year benchmark Treasury yield saw its largest single-day increase this year, rising by 3.13% to close at 5.11%, nearing a 20-year high. The spike is connected to the Iran conflict, which has significantly impacted global oil prices. Since the conflict began in March, yields have risen an average of 30% from 3.92% to the current level.

Why it matters
The rise above the 5% yield level is widely watched as a key threshold for global financial markets. This move suggests investors are concerned about the sustainability of US fiscal policy and the management of the looming national debt. Gold and yields are currently competing for investor capital.
