Dollar, Treasury Yields Edge Lower as Oil Prices Fall -- Market Talk

1018 GMT - The dollar and Treasury yields fall slightly but remain near Thursday's highs as oil prices pull back marginally. Brent crude falls 3% to $97.73 a barrel, having reached a two-month high of $102 on Thursday driven by the escalating U.S.-Iran conflict. Geopolitical risks are unlikely to fade anytime soon, keeping energy markets tight and inflation risks elevated, Capital.com analyst Daniela Hathorn says in a note. The DXY dollar index falls 0.1% to 101.359, having hit a three-week high of 101.544 Thursday. The 10-year Treasury yield falls 2 basis points to 4.683%, below an 18-month high of 4.714% reached Thursday, Tradeweb data show. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)
