The U.S. Treasury yields climbed on Thursday after President Donald Trump signaled that the Iran war could continue for several more weeks, reported by market data and analysts. The 10-year yield rose above 4.37 percent, while shorter and longer-term yields also moved higher.
The report said investor sentiment weakened following Trump’s address, in which he warned of intensified military action against Iran. Rising yields reflect concerns about prolonged conflict, inflation risks, and broader economic uncertainty.

Stock futures also declined, reversing earlier gains as markets reacted to the possibility of extended geopolitical tensions. According to reports, investors are closely tracking economic indicators alongside war developments.
Recent labor data showed modest strength, with private sector hiring slightly beating expectations. However, analysts said geopolitical risks are now dominating market direction.
Markets are expected to remain volatile, with traders awaiting jobless claims data and the upcoming U.S. jobs report for further signals on economic stability.
