About the US 10-Year Treasury Yield

The US 10-year Treasury yield is the annual return investors require to hold a 10-year US government note to maturity, and it is the most widely watched interest rate in the world. It combines expectations for Federal Reserve policy and inflation over the next decade with a term premium for tying money up that long.

It serves as a reference for long-term borrowing costs, including US mortgage rates, and as a discount rate in equity valuation, which is why a sharp rise in the 10-year often weighs on growth and technology stocks. It also matters for currencies: a wider gap between US and foreign yields tends to support the US dollar, and USD/JPY in particular is closely watched against the US-Japan rate gap.

Frequently asked questions

What is the US 10-year Treasury yield today?

This page shows the latest US 10-year Treasury yield from Cboe's 10-year yield index, its change on the day in basis points, the day and 52-week ranges and a chart. Values come from a free public feed and may be delayed by around 15 minutes.

Why is the 10-year yield so important?

It is the benchmark long-term rate for the world's largest government bond market. Mortgage rates, corporate borrowing costs and the discount rates used to value stocks all take their cue from it, so a big move in the 10-year ripples through equities, currencies and gold.

How does the 10-year yield affect the dollar and gold?

Higher US yields relative to other countries tend to attract capital into dollar assets, which can support the US dollar. Gold pays no interest, so rising yields, particularly after inflation, raise the opportunity cost of holding it and often weigh on its price. These are tendencies, not fixed rules, and other drivers can dominate on any given day.

Why do bond yields rise when bond prices fall?

A Treasury pays a fixed coupon. If market rates rise, an existing bond's fixed payments are worth less, so its price falls until its yield matches the new market rate; when rates fall, the opposite happens. Yield and price therefore always move in opposite directions, and the longer the maturity, the larger the price move for the same change in yield.

When does the 10-year yield update?

The index updates on US business days during roughly 7:20am to 2:00pm Chicago time. There is no weekend or overnight value, so outside those hours the figure shown is the last session's close.
