30-year maturity U.S. Treasury yield, 5.02%...Highest since 2023

The 30-year maturity United States Treasury bond yield reached 5.02%, the highest level since November 2023, reported Walter Bloomberg. This rise is analyzed as being influenced by the global credit rating agency Moody's downgrading the United States' national credit rating from Aaa to Aa1 by one notch.

Experts explained that "the credit rating downgrade increased the risk premium of United States Treasury bonds, and as investors' required yields rose, long-term interest rates soared." Investors are focusing their attention on the potential ripple effects of this yield rise on the future financial market.
