Treasury Yields Stuck in Neutral as Jobs Disaster Meets Trump Policy Chaos

Treasury Yields Stuck in Neutral as Jobs Disaster Meets Trump Policy Chaos

Treasury yields remained largely unchanged Monday as investors digested weak jobs data and Trump’s new tariff policies.

The 10-year yield held steady at 4.22%, while the 2-year dipped slightly to 3.702%. Markets continue to process July’s disappointing employment report, which was revised down by 258,000 jobs for May and June combined.

Political turmoil added to uncertainty after Trump fired the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner and Fed Governor Adriana Kugler resigned, creating an opening for Trump to influence monetary policy as he pushes for lower rates.
