U.S. Treasury Yields, Dollar Retreat -- Market Talk

1021 GMT - U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar decline, reversing some of Friday's rises after Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh warned about inflation risks. Prospects of a Sept. 16 rate hike have increased, although investors await jobs data on Friday and inflation data next week. Rate-rise prospects and higher oil prices should support the dollar and yields, says DHF Capital S.A's Bas Kooijman. "Rising oil prices could also revive concerns about persistent inflation, placing upward pressure on yields and strengthening the dollar." The two-year Treasury yield--which rose almost 12 basis points after Warsh's speech--falls 2.3 basis points to 4.325%, according to Tradeweb. The 10-year yield falls 1 basis points to 4.710%. The DXY dollar index falls 0.2% to 99.525. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
