The US 10-year Treasury yield fell 0.08 percentage point over the week to 4.86% on Nov. 6, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis's FRED database.
The decline extended a larger drop from the monthly comparison, with the yield down 0.42 percentage point from 5.28% on Oct. 7. The three-month bill yield rose over the week, while two-year and 30-year yields fell.
The 10-year yield stood at 4.94% on Oct. 30. Its weekly decline was larger than those of the two-year note and 30-year bond, which each fell 0.05 percentage point over the same period.
The two-year Treasury yield was 4.51% on Nov. 6, down from 4.56% on Oct. 30 and 4.77% on Oct. 7. Its decline over the monthly comparison was 0.26 percentage point, smaller than the 10-year yield's drop.
The 30-year bond yield reached 5.26% on Nov. 6, compared with 5.31% a week earlier and 5.67% on Oct. 7. It fell 0.41 percentage point over the monthly comparison, almost matching the decline in the 10-year yield.
The three-month bill yield stood at 4.19% on Nov. 6, up 0.03 percentage point from 4.16% on Oct. 30. It was still below its Oct. 7 level of 4.22%, a decline of 0.03 percentage point over the monthly comparison.
The separate 10-year minus two-year spread was positive at 0.32 percentage point on Nov. 9, FRED data showed. That left the 10-year yield above the two-year yield on the spread series' latest observation date.
The spread was unchanged from Nov. 2 but narrowed from a positive 0.47 percentage point on Oct. 8. The gap between those two yields contracted by 0.15 percentage point over that monthly comparison.
The 10-year breakeven inflation rate, the difference between nominal and inflation-indexed yields, was 2.22% on Nov. 9. It fell 0.07 percentage point from 2.29% on Nov. 2 and 0.13 percentage point from 2.35% on Oct. 8.
The 10-year inflation-indexed yield, the yield on Treasury debt adjusted for inflation, was 2.63% on Nov. 6. It rose 0.03 percentage point from 2.60% on Oct. 30 but fell 0.29 percentage point from 2.92% on Oct. 7.
The latest maturity and inflation-indexed yields therefore refer to Nov. 6, while the spread and breakeven readings refer to Nov. 9. Their weekly and monthly comparisons also use different dates, with the latter series measured against Nov. 2 and Oct. 8.
