The US 10-year Treasury yield surged to a new 19-year high Wednesday, as more hot economic readings boosted expectations of further interest rate increases.

The latest manufacturing data underscored the boom in US business activity and showed the โ€œgreatest recorded [increase] since early 2015,โ€ an economist said, noting that input costs โ€” mostly fuel and transportation โ€” also jumped at the steepest rate in four years. Oil ticked higher after Iranโ€™s president delivered a defiant speech at the UN, stirring inflation fears.

Odds of another rate increase at next monthโ€™s US Federal Reserve meeting approached 70%, as one Fed governor said Wednesday that further tightening would be required to tame inflation.
