U.S. Treasury yields were lower Friday as investors continued to assess the state of the U.S. economy after labor data buoyed sentiment. The yield on the 10-year Treasury was around 6 basis points lower at 3.94% at 4 p.m. Nonetheless, it was holding near the level it was at last week before a weak U.S. jobs report helped trigger a run of global market volatility. The yield on the 2-year note was up less than 1 basis point on the day at 4.051%. Yields and prices move in opposite directions, and one basis point equals one one-hundredth (0.01%) of a percent.
