Government Shutdown Leaves U.S. Treasury Operations Intact

Updated Oct. 1, 2025 at 5:12 am ET

0906 GMT – U.S. Treasury operations remain unaffected by the government shutdown as the debate isn’t linked to the debt ceiling this time, says Julius Baer’s Dario Messi in a note. “As such, unless prolonged, the event is politically highly sensitive but unlikely to disrupt bond markets by itself significantly,” the head of fixed income says. Initial market reactions are also muted. Historically, short-lived shutdowns have had minimal economic impact, Messi say. The 10-year Treasury yield rises 0.6 basis points to 4.515%, according to Tradeweb. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
