The US 10-Year Treasury Yield represents the annualized return on investment for holding a 10-year U.S. government bond to maturity. It is a key indicator of investor sentiment, economic expectations, and interest rate trends. Often referred to as the “benchmark” yield, it influences a wide range of financial products, including mortgage rates, corporate borrowing costs, and other bond yields. Movements in the 10-year yield are driven by factors such as inflation expectations, Federal Reserve policies, economic growth data, and global market dynamics. A rising yield typically signals higher expectations for inflation and economic growth, while a falling yield may reflect increased demand for safe-haven assets or concerns about economic weakness.
