Today: Shein: IPO ohne Euphorie | USA instrumentalisieren G20-Treffen
In Erwartung höherer Zinsen steigen die Anleiherenditen wieder. US-Finanzminister Scott Bessent irritiert seine Partner. Und Shein legt ein verhaltenes Börsendebüt hin.
In the initial days of the week, the United States launched its first attack against Iranian positions since the end of July. In response, Tehran retaliated by striking US bases in Jordan. This led to rising oil and gas prices and growing inflation concerns. Consequently, there were renewed sales on the bond market on Tuesday, as investors anticipated interest rate hikes and pushed bond yields to multi-year highs.
This is not limited to US Treasuries, but also extends to bonds in Japan and Europe, according to Stefan Reccius, currency policy correspondent at Handelsblatt. The market report highlights the market's nervousness, with yields at multi-year peaks. The G20 Finance Ministers' meeting in Asheville, North Carolina, failed to ease the bond market's concerns.
Instead, it appeared that US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant was using this high-level meeting to further US interests. Financial Affairs Chief Reporter Martin Greive explained the background in a podcast.
