U.S. borrowing costs are soaring to near-decade highs, driven by heavy government debt, a resilient economy, global energy inflation, and Fed rate hikes — sparking fears of “bond vigilantes” pushing back. Homeowners face higher mortgage rates, auto loans climb, and variable-rate borrowers feel the squeeze fastest. Businesses pay more to refinance, chilling big investments like AI infrastructure. The government’s ballooning interest payments strain budgets, forcing tough choices on taxes or spending. Globally, rising Treasury yields strengthen the dollar, hurt foreign borrowers, and force banks and pension funds to sell bonds at losses if they need cash.
