Today: Warum die Renditen von US-Staatsanleihen so hoch sind wie zuletzt 2001
30-jährige US-Staatsanleihen sind am Donnerstag mit 5,24 Prozent Rendite ausgegeben worden. Außerdem: US-Korrespondent Felix Holterman erzählt vom Interview mit OpenAI-CEO Sam Altman.
As of today, the yields of US Treasury bonds have reached levels last seen in 2001, according to a recent report. Felix Holtermann, editor-in-chief of Handelsblatt's US bureau, recently sat down with Sam Altman, the founder and CEO of OpenAI, for an exclusive podcast interview. During the conversation, Holtermann discussed how he managed to arrange the interview with Altman, his personal experience during the session, and his thoughts on the criticism directed at Altman, particularly the claim that he is a liar.
The podcast marks the launch of Handelsblatt's new "Today – das Interview" format, available in both English and German versions. The financial segment of the report also delves into the rising yields of US Treasury bonds, which recently hit a 25-year high at 5.24 percent for bonds with a 30-year maturity. This trend is making borrowing for the US government increasingly expensive.
Andrea Cünnen, a financial correspondent at Handelsblatt, explains the reasons behind this phenomenon and speculates on its future trajectory. The full interview with Sam Altman is available in its entirety on the Handelsblatt Today YouTube channel and podcast platform.
