Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
US Treasury yields fell sharply after early midterm election results signaled Democratic gains, as investors bet a divided Congress could curb the Trump administration’s tax-cut and spending plans. The five-year yield dropped as much as 9 basis points to 4.67%, while the 10-year yield slid 6 basis points to 4.90%, and the dollar index weakened 0.4%. The move reflects expectations that divided government may limit further fiscal expansion, supporting demand for government debt. Investors will watch final vote counts and the resulting balance of power in Congress for clarity on the fiscal outlook.
