Bond yields hit multi-decade highs on deficits, Iran stalemate, and AI debt

Aug 19, 2026

The Reuters segment explains the recent surge in global bond yields to multi-decade highs. It attributes the move primarily to supply-demand imbalances driven by large government deficits in the US, Japan, and Europe, plus higher inflation expectations from elevated oil prices amid Middle East conflict stalemate. Additional supply comes from tech firms like Microsoft and Amazon issuing debt to fund AI data centers and chips. The report notes knock-on effects including higher government interest costs crowding out other spending and squeezed corporate profits.
