Bond Sell-Off Drives Oil Prices Above $70 Amid Iran Tensions
A global bond sell-off continues, causing oil prices to rise as tensions escalate in the Middle East.
The latest round of airstrikes by the US against Iran has sparked concerns about a potential conflict and its impact on markets. The price of oil jumped higher due to supply fears, with Brent crude rising above $70 per barrel.
The bond market is also feeling the pressure, with yields increasing as investors become risk-averse. This trend is expected to continue unless there is a significant shift in global events or policies.
