Treasuries Stabilise, UK Lobbies US On Diesel, More
Sep 29, 2026 · 9m
Summary
A global bond sell-off driven by surging oil prices and US rate hike expectations has pushed the 10-year Treasury yield to 5.25%, prompting UK Chancellor John Healey to pledge fiscal discipline. Meanwhile, ECB President Christine Lagarde warns rising yields will slow growth, while the UK seeks a US exemption from potential diesel export bans. In tech, OpenAI holds back its latest model over safety concerns, and Bain estimates the AI industry needs $6 trillion in annual revenue by 2031 to justify data center investments.
