I watch the 10-year Treasury yield every weekday morning. If the 10-year Treasury bond yield stays around 4.1%, the cost of these mortgages could rise in coming days and set new 20-year highs. The 10-year Treasury bond yield is a common way to do this discounting. If the 10-year Treasury yield is 4%, that $10 billion is suddenly worth a whole lot less in today's money. This is often why tech stocks fall when the 10-year Treasury bond yield spikes.
