Investing.com - The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes hit its highest in more than four years at 3% shortly after the U.S. open on Tuesday.

Investors have been focused on the 10-year yield in recent sessions as it inched towards the key psychological level amid concerns that it could trigger a reaction in global financial markets.

The yield has been driven higher as strengthening inflation prospects added to expectations for a faster rate of monetary tightening from the Federal Reserve.

3% yield on the 10 yr T, is low compared to all this QE and tax cuts... a stupid fear issue stemming from lack of understanding of economic variables...
Completely true. Have people forgotten about the late 80's, not to mention the reason for increasing rates. Although it is not a self correction, it is adjusted to prevent hyper inflation which is much worse then the rate inching upwards.
It just a matter of when:)
