Treasury Yields Dropped

November 26th, 2007

Big drop in Treasury yields today. The 2Y went from about 3.01% to 2.88%. Most believe a big part of the buying spree was large investors seeking to cover other investments they had made. But that wouldn’t account for all of the reduction. The 10-year dropped to levels not seen since March 2004. It was down to 3.84%.

Some believe it is a further flight to safety from other investment vehicles. The continued drop will make it difficult for the Fed to not decrease rates again on Dec. 11.
