1031 GMT - A fall in U.S. Treasury yields accelerates in European trade as oil prices stabilize. The dollar is stable as safe-haven demand due to concerns about conflict in the Middle East is offset by reduced expectations for U.S. interest-rate hikes. "The U.S, dollar remained broadly stable as investors balanced safe-haven demand against moderating expectations for Federal Reserve tightening," Kudo.com's Konstantinos Chrysikos says in a note. The two-year Treasury yield falls 3.2 basis points to 4.122%, while the 10-year Treasury yield declines 4 basis points to 4.528%, according to Tradeweb. Brent is up 1.8% at $85.77, but stays around recent levels. The DXY dollar index is flat at 100.797. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
