Bond yields crank higher and pull US stocks further from their record

NEW YORK (AP) — Yields in the U.S. bond market cranked higher Monday and again touched their highest levels in roughly two decades, which knocked U.S. stocks further from their record high.

Stocks felt pressure as the yield on the 10-year Treasury briefly topped 5.27% before pulling back to 5.23%, up from 5.17% late Friday. It’s back to where it... Read More
