# Bond yields hit highs as Fed hike bets surge

Yields hit records: Treasury yields climbed to multi-year highs, with the 30-year topping 5.1% and the 10-year reaching 4.6%, driven by inflation fears and energy shocks. Rate hike bets: Futures markets now price in a strong chance of a Fed rate hike by early 2027, with some traders seeing the first move as early as December. Economic ripple effects: Higher yields threaten to raise mortgage and corporate borrowing costs, weigh on stocks, and slow economic growth, echoing past inflationary cycles.
