The yield on the benchmark 10-year bond, which moves inversely to its price, rose 3 basis points to 0.16 percent, the yield on long-term 30-year note also climbed 2 basis points to 0.753 percent and the yield on short-term 2-year bond bounced 1/2 basis point to -0.633 percent by 10:00 GMT.
Global Treasury yields jumped Monday after FBI Director James Coney released an official statement over the weekend saying that Hillary Clinton has been cleared of all charges, remaining stern in their conclusions expressed in July with respect to Secretary Clinton. This announcement removed clouds of suspicion around her campaign and potential Presidency.
According to latest polls from WSJ/NBC, Clinton is still ahead in the election but Trump is with all the momentum. She is ahead 44 percent to 40 percent in the poll but that's down from 48 percent to 37 percent in a poll from the same firm in mid-October. The survey has Johnson at 6 percent and Stein at 1 percent.
Meanwhile, the German stock index DAX Index traded 1.52 percent higher at 10,415 by 10:00 GMT.
