Elevated U.S. fiscal deficits near 6% of GDP and record Treasury issuance are the main drivers lifting the 30-year yield to 5.24% as of September 4, 2026, up from 4.86% a year earlier, by expanding term premiums as investors absorb increased long-end supply. Sticky core inflation above the Fed’s 2% target, combined with a hawkish policy stance under Chair Kevin Warsh and Fed funds at 3.50–3.75%, has reduced expectations for near-term easing and kept real yields supported. Recent geopolitical oil shocks and competition for capital from AI-related corporate issuance have added upward pressure. Key near-term catalysts include the September FOMC meeting, upcoming CPI and employment data, and Treasury auction results, all of which could shift market-implied rate paths and term-premium pricing before year-end.
