Bonds yields have ticked higher after the Treasury Department said it would buy up to $6 billion of longer-term debt at its Thursday buyback operation.
That number was generally in line with investors' expectations. However, there had been some speculation that the operation could be even bigger, and that the Treasury Department might even shift to buying a minimum amount of bonds rather than a maximum amount.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note was recently 4.849%, according to Tradeweb, its highest intraday level since November 2023. The 30-year yield climbed back above 5.3%.
