LONDON, Oct ‌7 (Reuters) - The ​US ​30-year bond yield hit a fresh 24 ‌year high on Wednesday, as a ⁠selloff in world bond markets ‌resumed a day after ‌getting some respite from worries over higher inflation and government ​debt loads.

The 30-year yield briefly touched 5.7041% ahead of ⁠the release of the Federal Reserve's September ​meeting minutes later in the day.

Global yields resumed their climb, ​reversing some of ‌the relief felt in the previous session, as ⁠inflation and fiscal worries weighed and oil prices rose again. Brent ⁠crude futures were last up over 1% ​on the day at around $101.54 a barrel.

Traders also awaited a 10-year Treasury ‌bond auction later in the day and a ‌30-year auction on Thursday, the ⁠next test ‌of appetite ​for US bonds.
