- US 30-year Treasury yield hits 5.623% — highest level since 2002, per @KobeissiLetter
- Quarterly chart shows V-shaped recovery from 2020–2021 trough back to early 2000s highs
- Catalyst: record deficit spending and persistent inflation pressuring long-duration sovereign debt
- Kobeissi conclusion: own hard assets — the bond market is pricing a structural shift in cost of capital
The US 30-year Treasury yield has climbed to 5.623% — its highest level since 2002 — as record deficit spending and persistent inflation continue to pressure long-duration sovereign debt, according to @KobeissiLetter.
The quarterly chart shows the yield opened at 5.637%, reached a session high of 5.692%, and is currently printing at 5.623% — completing a large V-shaped recovery from the 2020–2021 trough back to levels last seen in the early 2000s. The multi-decade pattern is unmistakable: a prolonged decline from 2003 highs collapsed to near-zero during the pandemic era, followed by one of the sharpest sustained reversals in modern bond market history.
The Kobeissi Letter frames the move as a direct consequence of two compounding structural forces: deficit spending that has reached record levels and inflation that has yet to be fully subdued. Together, they are pushing the market’s long-run rate expectations to levels most investors have never priced into their portfolios.
The macro implication is direct. When the risk-free rate on 30-year government paper rises to 5.6%, the relative attractiveness of every asset class — equities, real estate, and hard assets including crypto — recalibrates. Historically, periods of sustained high long-bond yields have compressed equity multiples and accelerated rotation into inflation-resistant stores of value. The same dynamic that pushed investors toward Bitcoin and commodities during the 2022 rate shock is now re-emerging at a structurally higher yield baseline.

The Kobeissi Letter’s conclusion is unhedged: own assets or be left behind. With the 30-year yield at a 23-year high, the bond market is pricing in a structural — not cyclical — shift in the cost of capital. That is the signal the market is sending.
