30-year Treasury yield reaches 24-year high as bond selloff deepens

  • The bond selloff pushed the 30-year Treasury yield to a 24-year high.
  • Oil prices declined Tuesday while the slide in bonds continued.
  • Energy costs and a stronger economy have influenced interest-rate expectations.

Signs of a strengthening economy have also contributed to the market pressure.
