The (https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/US10Y/) 10-year Treasury yield breached a level last seen in April 2002, rising 4 basis points to 5.3338%, according to LSEG data.

Government borrowing costs rose around the world on Thursday, continuing a months-long trend as investors express concerns over a lack of political action to tackle fiscal deficits, while inflation remains sticky and interest rates rise.

Crude oil prices were (https://www.cnbc.com/2026/10/01/oil-prices-today-wti-brent.html) higher on Thursday , with international benchmark Brent Crude back above $100 a barrel. "We could see [bond] buyers come in effectively to take advantage of those yields, which would have the effect of causing them to go down, but also one of the things that has kept the volatility in those yields in the long end of the curve has been what's going on with oil, what's going on with inflation," Nomi Prins, founder of Prinsights Global, told CNBC's "Squawk Box Europe" on Thursday. But sovereign wealth funds and central banks, among the main long-term holders of Treasury debt, are unlikely to do this, Prins said. "We could see movement ... in Treasury yields going down if oil prices go down significantly, if there's a resolution" in the Middle East, Prins added.
