Bond yields could rise to 7.5% on crude, inflation pressures

Domestic bond yields may increase by up to forty-five basis points, with some predicting they could rise to 7.5%. This is due to the impact of high crude prices and rising inflation expectations on the market. As a result, investors may become more cautious, leading to higher bond yields as they demand higher returns to compensate for the increased risk. This could have a negative impact on the economy, making borrowing more expensive for consumers and businesses.
