Treasury yields dropped to a record low on Thursday, falling below 2%, while yields on benchmark 10-year notes dipped to a three-year low, as investors flocked to safe haven assets.

Meanwhile, stateside the Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered its worst day of the year on Wednesday on the back of the yield curve inversion, but U.S.Asian stocks were mixed on Friday as investors monitored U.S. Treasury yields.

However, Beijing said on Thursday that it would retaliate to the latest round of U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods.
