The yield on the US 10-year Treasury bond has climbed back to nearly 3.9% on Wednesday, recovering from a recent low. This increase follows a weaker-than-expected jobs report that had initially raised concerns about a potential recession and fueled speculation of an emergency interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. However, market sentiment has shifted as investors now believe the Fed may not need to intervene as aggressively.
