Two-year Treasury yields extended gains as Fed chief Kevin Warsh spoke and hit 4.738%, their highest level since July 2024. The benchmark 10-year yield turned higher. The decision on the rate increase, which was the Fed's first in over three years, was unanimous. New policy projections showed 16 of 18 policymakers anticipate at least one more quarter-percentage-point hike by the end of this year. Warsh did not submit a rate projection.

So, maybe it helps the long end a little bit, but the front end's still worried about another hike later this year, and then who knows what for 2027," said JP Powers, chief investment officer at RWA Wealth Partners in Boston. Market bets on a rate hike at the Fed's next meeting in late October ticked higher to 56.5% from 54% prior to the hike, according to CME Group's FedWatch Tool.
