CREDIT MARKETS

Treasuries:
Treasuries edged up yesterday on the back of solid results for a sale of 7-year notes, though gains were limited by a surprisingly better report on jobless claims. As prices rose, yields on benchmark 10-year notes fell 5 basis points to 2.48%. Yields on 30-year bonds also fell 5 basis points to 3.52%. Yields on two-year notes increased 1 basis points to close at 0.52%. The Treasury Department said it sold $29 billion in 7-year notes at a yield of 1.989%, to stronger demand than at recent auctions.
