About the US 30-Year Treasury Yield

The US 30-year Treasury yield is the return on the 30-year Treasury bond, the longest-dated security the US government issues regularly and often called the long bond. It reflects the market's long-run view of inflation and growth, plus the largest term premium on the curve for lending to the government for three decades.

Because a 30-year bond has very long duration, its price swings sharply for even small changes in yield, so the long end reacts strongly to inflation surprises, US fiscal and debt-supply news and demand at Treasury auctions. Long-duration investors such as pension funds and insurers are major holders, and long-dated bond funds such as the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) move inversely to long-end yields.

Frequently asked questions

What is the US 30-year Treasury yield today?

This page shows the latest US 30-year Treasury yield from Cboe's 30-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.

What moves the 30-year Treasury yield?

The long end is driven more by long-run inflation expectations, the government's borrowing needs and investor demand for long-dated debt than by the next few Fed meetings. Large deficits or weak auction demand tend to push it higher; falling inflation expectations or a flight to safety tend to pull it lower.

How is the 30-year yield related to TLT?

TLT, the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, holds long-dated Treasuries, so its price moves in the opposite direction to long-end yields such as the 30-year. When the 30-year yield rises, TLT usually falls, and vice versa.

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 30-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.
