The Treasury market just experienced a sell-off that makes investors question whether bonds still belong in their portfolios. According to Reuters, Treasuries suffered their worst quarter since 1994 in Q3, while the 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.36% in early October. Fixed-income investors have struggled to justify owning this asset class for almost the entire past six years since the COVID pandemic. But the damage in long-term Treasury bonds in 2026 also presents an opportunity. The same sell-off that's punished existing bondholders has substantially increased income for new buyers. History suggests that the distinction could matter a great deal over the next several years. Image source: Getty Images.
