The yield on the 10-Year US Treasury note eased to 4.96% on Monday after having tested a 19-year high of 5.01% earlier in the session, tracking the slight pullback for key energy prices as markets gauged the magnitude of inflation risks. Wholesale fuel prices eased after President Trump signaled that Russia and Ukraine would halt strikes on energy infrastructure. Still, energy inflation continued to pressure Treasuries across the curve as recent data suggested that tariffs and high fuel costs had impacted underlying inflation gauges. Money markets show that the Federal Reserve is expected to raise its rates by 25bps on Wednesday. In turn, long-maturity Treasury yields have also been supported soaring levels of corporate debt by AI companies, limiting allocation of capital by primary dealers and other financial institutions.

Brent traded at $106 per barrel on Monday from the four-month high of $110 earlier in the session, after US President Trump stated that Russia and Ukraine agreed to suspend strikes against opposing energy infrastructure. Recent attacks on Russian refiners had cut the country's capacity and drove the major producer to become a diesel importer since July. Still, low supply from the Middle East maintained crude above the $100 threshold. Saudi Arabia was forced to close its East-West pipeline following attacks from Iraqi territory. The strikes suspended activity in infrastructure that was allocating 7 million barrels per day of Saudi oil to the Red Sea, acting as an alternative to halted shipments through the Persian Gulf due to the Iranian blockade on GCC oil exports. Meanwhile, scheduled talks between the GCC and Iran, aimed at conjuring joint efforts to restart oil supply from the region, were postponed by Tehran.
