[U.S. 30-Year Treasury Yield Rises to Highest Level Since 2007] According to reports, the U.S. 30-year Treasury yield briefly rose to 5.181% on Tuesday, marking its highest level since 2007. Concerns over accelerating inflation and rising energy prices have triggered a sell-off in the global bond market, with yields on U.S. Treasuries across all maturities climbing.
