Rates in context

The curve beneath the headline
A positive 27.0 bp 2s10s spread left the curve flatter by 6.0 bp. The 5s30s spread stood at 49.0 bp, a 4.0 bp narrowing, while 1s10s finished at 56.0 bp.
What BondStats is watching
Front-end repricing was stronger than the long-end move. That makes the session more sensitive to the path of near-term rates than a simple reading of the 10-year headline suggests.
BondStats computes these comparisons from official US Treasury daily par yield-curve observations. They are indicative par yields, not transaction prices. Causal claims are deliberately excluded unless a separate primary source establishes them.
