Core Inflation Rises To 3.3%

Today, traders also had a chance to take a look at the Initial Jobless Claims report. The report showed that 258,000 Americans filed for unemployment benefits in a week, compared to analyst consensus of 230,000.

Treasury yields pulled back as traders reacted to the reports. The yield of 2-year Treasuries declined below the 4.00% level, while the yield of 10-year Treasuries pulled back towards 4.05%. It should be noted that Treasury yields have already started to rebound from recent lows.
