# Bond market rout deepens as structural fiscal fears grow

Why yields stay high: Investors see structural fiscal concerns, not just war and energy shocks, as keeping long-term US borrowing costs elevated. Economic ripple effects: Higher yields are raising borrowing costs for households and businesses, threatening housing demand, consumer spending, and equity valuations. Political stakes rise: Persistent high yields could complicate President Trump's economic agenda and influence voter sentiment ahead of the midterms.
