01 CNBC An eye-popping ascent in bond yields is raising alarm on Wall Street that the artificial intelligence trade could see some new financial pressure. The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield hit its highest level in 19 years on Tuesday, topping the 5.33% level. The trend spread overseas: Japan's 10-year bond yield touched three-decade highs , while the 30-year bond yields from Germany and France rose to levels not seen since 2011 and 2008, respectively. Rising bond yields have been tied to concerns about persistent inflation and the growing U.S. debt load. Investors are worried that elevated yields could hamper what has become a key driver for the U.S. stock market in recent years: the artificial intelligence buildout.
