Description
The United States 10-Year Treasury Yield is released by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and represents the annualized return on the 10-year Treasury note issued by the government to raise capital. The 10-year Treasury yield is often regarded as a benchmark interest rate, influencing other long-term rates such as mortgage rates and corporate loan rates, and it typically reflects market expectations for economic growth, inflation, and monetary policy.
When economic prospects are stable and growth expectations are strong, investors may prefer higher-risk financial products, leading them to sell long-term Treasuries, which causes prices to fall and yields to rise. Conversely, when the market feels uncertain or pessimistic about the economic outlook, investors tend to seek the safety of long-term Treasuries, driving up their prices and lowering yields.
