(Reuters) - Treasuries rallied on Tuesday as the market reopened after Monday's U.S. public holiday and investors sought out safer assets to shelter from the general atmosphere of uncertainty over Sino-U.S. trade talks and Brexit.
The ten-year yield was down 8 bps at 1.675%
Bond markets rallied on Monday however as caution crept in on both fronts and yields are broadly lower across the board on Tuesday.
Two-year Treasury yields too fell 7 bps to 1.543%
U.S. Federal Reserve official James Bullard, who last month voted for a big half-point rate cut, said meanwhile in London he hoped the Fed's two recent rate cuts would have staved off a lengthy inversion of the 2-10-year bond yield curve, that has preluded U.S. recessions in the past.
The yield curve has since disinverted.
He said the cuts could be reversed if the economic outlook improved.
