[US Treasury Yields Fall Across the Board, Dollar Under Pressure as Expectations of Middle East Diplomatic Breakthrough Fuel Cautious Optimism] ⑴ US Treasury yields across all maturities fell on Tuesday, with the dollar index dropping 0.1% to 99.09. Bas Kooijman, CEO of DHF Capital SA, stated that investors remained optimistic that a Middle East diplomatic breakthrough could ultimately lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and alleviate energy price-related inflationary pressures, pushing yields to continue their decline from the previous trading day. ⑵ Data showed that the 10-year US Treasury yield fell 2.8 basis points to 4.463%. The market is still cautiously weighing the prospects of a peace agreement, with no overly optimistic buying. ⑶ Market focus has now shifted to the personal consumption expenditure price index and GDP data to be released on Thursday. Kooijman pointed out that these two data points could be important catalysts for the dollar and US Treasury yields; if inflation data is higher than expected or economic growth data changes, it could reverse the current trend of declining yields.
