Average global sovereign bond yields retreated on Thursday after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates and reaffirmed its commitment to controlling inflation.[^5]

The pullback followed a climb that had taken yields to a 19-year high, driven by Middle East tensions that lifted oil prices and inflation expectations, Perfil reported.[^4]
