   Treasury yields rise as 10-year bond faces century-worst run

   Treasury yields rose as a volatile week concluded. The 10-year Treasury is currently experiencing its worst run in more than 100 years, though some investors continue to buy bonds. Bank of America has characterized current conditions as a "generational entry point" for U.S. bonds. Meanwhile, a rally in U.S. bonds is expected to support gains for Asian stocks alongside lower oil prices.

   Why it matters

   Bond yields and prices move inversely. A century-level decline in the 10-year Treasury suggests a prolonged period of devaluation that complicates borrowing costs. Investors are now weighing this historic downturn against potential long-term entry opportunities.
