U.S. Treasury yields hovered near their highest levels since November on Thursday as investors weighed steady labor market data and warnings from Federal Reserve officials that the decline in inflation may have stalled. Yields have jumped near five-month highs this week following stronger-than-expected inflation data last week. Markets are now pricing in a total of 42 basis points in interest rate cuts by the end of this year, down from more than 160 basis points in cuts expected in January, and now see the first cut coming in September, according to CME's FedWatch Tool.
The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield is likely to continue rising, with key resistance at October's peak of 5.021%, said Quek Ser Leang, markets strategist at UOB's Global Economics & Markets Research, in a research note. Taking into account other technical indicators and weekly time horizon, the odds of the 10-year yield reaching October's peak in the next couple of months seems low, the strategist added.
