Why are U.S. Treasury yields rising again, and what do 24-year-high bond rates mean for American investors and their portfolios?

Why US Treasury yields are hitting 2002 highs? U.S. Treasury yields are rising again. The Federal Reserve is one reason. It isn't the only one. The government is issuing more debt. Companies are also selling more bonds. Investors are demanding higher returns. Inflation remains a concern. That is pushing yields higher across the Treasury market. The 10-year yield is above 5.3%. The 30-year yield is near 5.7%. Both are at levels last seen in 2002.
