Gold-Silver Ratio Hits 100:1 – A Historic Buying Signal for Silver 
US Treasury bonds fell and yields rose Monday as investors shifted toward riskier assets following reports that President Trump’s “liberation day” tariffs, scheduled for April 2, will be more narrowly targeted than initially feared.
The 10-year Treasury yield increased by four basis points to 4.29%, while German bonds saw similar modest declines. This market reaction suggests reduced concern about the potential negative impact on global trade and growth. Despite Monday’s movement, many investors expect US yields to eventually decline as economic confidence weakens amid continued trade uncertainty.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is actively working to push bond yields lower, and major banks have reduced their year-end yield forecasts. This contrasts with the eurozone, where recent Purchasing Managers’ Index data shows improving economic activity, particularly in Germany where business activity grew at its fastest pace in 10 months, boosted by increased government spending expectations.
