Why are global bond yields rising?

Live Mint  

Global bond yields are flaring up to the levels unseen in years, drawing support from strong macroeconomic data that makes a case for continuing with the monetary tightening policy through interest rate hikes. The US treasury yields have climbed almost 40 bps month-to-date amid rising bets that interest rates will remain elevated for longer. However, while the 10-year US yield has risen nearly 35 bps in the last two weeks to 4.30%, the Indian benchmark 10-year bond yield has gained just around five basis points in the same period. The sharp spike in US bond yields negatively impact the capital flows to emerging markets like India.
