Yields on US Treasuries and European bonds fell.

Price pressures, tighter monetary policy and a slowing global economy continue to put pressure on markets. The US inflation rate is expected to approach 9% by the end of the week, a new high in four decades. This is an indication for the Fed to continue hiking the rate in July.

This has raised concerns about new quarantine measures, given that China remains committed to eliminating the disease
