U.S. Treasuries continue trading in mixed fashion with shorter tenors holding losses while 10s and 30s sit in positive territory.
Treasuries slipped to lows in immediate reaction to today’s batch of data, which showed in-line Personal Income growth in April and a larger than expected increase in Spending.
However, the market began rising off lows about 90 minutes later with the long bond rising past its opening high while the 10-yr note is back near its starting level.
Shorter tenors have also risen off their lows, but they remain in the red.
