Even With 10-Year Rates at 5.3%, I'd Still Rather Buy These 3 Dividend Stocks and Hold Through 2036

Published October 7, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

The 10-year Treasury yield recently touched its highest level in roughly two decades, north of 5.3%, per CNBC.

When the 10-year Treasury yield rises, stocks can become less attractive because investors can earn higher yields on safer bonds, and higher borrowing costs can weigh on companies and their growth. At the same time, older bonds with lower interest rates lose market value compared with newer, higher-yielding bonds.

Details

In short, this yield is the interest rate the U.S. government pays to borrow for 10 years and is a key benchmark for global borrowing costs and economic outlook.
