Treasury yields rise slightly amid Biden’s inauguration

The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield edged higher on Wednesday morning, ahead of President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose to 1.101% around 11:30 a.m., while the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond rose to 1.845%. Yields move inversely to prices.

Treasury yield moved slightly higher ahead of Biden being sworn into office shortly after noon ET, which will see him succeed President Donald Trump as the 46th president of the United States.

In his inauguration speech, Biden is expected to speak about the need to bring the country together on the heels of a violent riot on Capitol Hill and amid extreme partisanship in Congress.

Weekly API crude oil stock change data is expected to be released at 4:30 p.m. ET.

Auctions will be held Wednesday for $25 billion of 105-day bills, $30 billion of 154-day bills and $24 billion of 19-year 10-month bonds.
