Zhito Finance APP has learned that Citadel Securities believes the main driver behind the recent selloff in U.S. Treasuries and yields rising to multi-decade highs is not market concerns over further worsening inflation, but rather the continued strength of U.S. economic growth, as well as competition for capital intensified by artificial intelligence (AI) investment and government deficits. The institution pointed out that even if inflation eases somewhat in the future, it may not be enough to drive a significant decline in U.S. Treasury yields.
