Why the 30-Year Yield Topped 5 Percent and What It Means

On June 11, 2026, the 30-year Treasury yield hit 5.03 percent, a level not sustained since late 2023. Lucas and Luna break down what drove it there—term premium repricing, fiscal supply fears, and the Fed's rate path—and what it signals for long-term borrowers, pension funds, and the broader bond market. They anchor the conversation around the 30-year's move from 4.8 percent in early May to above 5 percent today, and what history says about yields staying at this level. No alarmism, just the mechanics and the stakes. #30YearTreasury #BondYield #TermPremium #TreasurySupply #FedPolicy #FixedIncome #YieldCurve #LongBonds #TLT #BondMarket #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheBondMarketPodcast #LucasAndLuna #PensionFunds #Yield5Percent #June2026 Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
