The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond rose to 4.36% on Thursday amid growing concerns over the re-emerging inflation spiral. Oil prices increased following U.S. President Trump’s commitment to take more aggressive measures against Iran, but no concrete plans were presented to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Crude oil prices remain near their 2022 highs, raising concerns about inflationary effects; this could lead the Fed to adopt a more hawkish stance and delay any interest rate cuts this year. Earlier this week, Fed Chair Powell stated that officials might need to respond to the economic impacts of the conflict, but not at this time, and that the current policy is well-positioned to allow a wait-and-see approach. Markets currently do not expect the Fed to change the federal funds rate this year.
