What happened, for context

US Treasury yields rose sharply in early September 2026, with the 10-year yield touching its highest level since 2023 and the 30-year yield reaching its highest since 2007. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced a $6 billion bond buyback plan—triple the previous maximum—but the operation failed to calm markets. Rising oil prices above $100 per barrel, inflation concerns, and expectations of Federal Reserve rate increases drove the sell-off.
