US Dollar Drops 5% as 10-Year Treasury Yield Rises Nearly 30 Basis Points to 4.43%
The longstanding correlation between the US dollar and Treasury yields has broken down in recent months. Since early April 2025, the 10-year US Treasury note yield has risen by approximately 27 to 30 basis points, reaching around 4.43%. In contrast, the US dollar index (DXY) has declined by about 5%, nearing its lowest level in three years. This inverse movement marks a departure from the previous close relationship between the US dollar and Treasury yields that had persisted for years.
