An analyst at United Bankshares in Belgium pointed out in a report that the basic trend of long-term ​bonds yields in the usa is still upward. The analyst stated that this is because the market expects more fiscal stimulus measures to be introduced globally. The analyst said, "These short-term measures will promote both growth and inflation, as well as bring higher crediting spreads." Following the closure of the usa market on Monday, the yield on 10-year us government bonds is currently at 4.34%, unchanged from last Friday.
