Treasuries:
Treasury prices eased on Thursday, pushing yields up for a fourth straight day, as the Federal Reserve conducted its last bond buyback, bringing an end to its second round of quantitative easing. However, month-end demand for bonds helped some debt to recover lost ground. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York bought $4.91 billion in Treasury debt, shutting down the program that’s the centerpiece of the central bank’s loose monetary policy. Yields on 10-year notes turned up by 5 basis points to 3.16%. This has been one of the roughest weeks for the benchmark with 10 year bonds yields jumping 24 basis points. Two year yields were mostly flat at .46%. Yields on 30-year bonds were also unchanged at 4.38%. The Fed has bought an additional $600 billion in Treasuries, which some analysts say has been in the hopes that investors would use the money to buy assets riskier than Treasuries such as equities, emerging markets, commodities and corporate bonds.

Treasury prices pared a decline on Tuesday, after benchmark 10-year yields rose back toward 3%, as traders took a more cautious stance ahead of a key vote by the Greek parliament. Still, the euro gained against the dollar and U.S. stocks rose, indicating investors felt more comfortable with the near-term outlook for Greece and are less interested in the relative safe-haven status of U.S. bonds. Yields on 10-year notes /quotes/zigman/4868283 10_YEAR +0.78% , which move inversely to prices, rose 2 basis points to 2.98%. A basis point is 1/100th of a percentage point. The security’s yield fell as low as 2.88% last week, the lowest since December. Yields on 2-year notes/quotes/zigman/4868354 2_YEAR -1.30% were little changed at 0.38%, remaining within hailing distance of recent levels that were almost their lowest ever.

Treasury prices pared losses Monday in volatile trading in a tight range as the dollar gave up its advance against the euro and traders reassessed the outlook for Greece receiving bailout funding from Europe. Benchmark 10-year yields fell to the lowest level since December during early U.S. trading hours after euro-zone finance ministers put off announcing a bailout plan for Greece and said Greek politicians had to first take steps toward approving additional spending cuts. Yields on 2-year notes/quotes/zigman/4868354 2_YEAR 0.00% declined to 0.35% — just a whisper above a record low touched recently. They recently slipped to 0.37%, down 2 basis points on the day.

Treasuries:
Treasury prices were mixed on the day after Europe’s political leaders appear more likely to agree on a way to help Greece bear its debt burden. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Friday that a new aid program is needed for Greece and the participation of the private sector in it should be voluntary. Enthusiasm for the deal initially boosted stocks, then waned, leaving benchmark indexes up only about 0.1%. Treasuries have rallied this quarter, pushing 10-year note yields down 50 basis points, on economic reports showing a slowdown in global growth as well as concern Europe is struggling to contain its debt crisis. The IMF cut its forecast for U.S. growth in 2011 for the second time in two months, warning that setbacks pose growing threats to the world economy, along with potential contagion from Europe’s debt crisis.

Treasuries:
Treasury prices rose pushing yields on 10 year notes to this year’s low, on speculation Greece will struggle to avoid default even as the International Monetary Fund reiterated its support. Bond prices shifted in a tight range after a weak U.S. manufacturing report and a pair of better-than-expected U.S. reports on jobless claims and housing starts. Yields on 10-year notes fell 5 basis points to 2.92%. Two-year yields closed at .38%. Thirty-year yields fell 3 basis points to 4.17%, after falling to 4.13% earlier. Investors are again looking for what a Greek default may mean to them, banks around the world and central banks, and whether it will begin a domino effect in other heavily indebted countries.

Treasuries:
Treasury prices extended gains on Wednesday, pushing 10-year yields down by the most since November, as escalating concerns about Greece’s ability to pay its debt had investors fleeing stocks, the euro and European debt. Yields on 10-year notes fell 13 basis points to 2.97% — the biggest drop since November. Yields on 2-year notes declined 6 basis points to 0.38%. Thirty-year-bond yields often more sensitive to inflation expectations, fell 11 basis points to 4.20%. The government’s consumer-price index for May rose 0.2%, or 0.3% when food and energy are excluded. Both inflation figures are a little higher than analysts predicted. Moody’s Investors Service said it may downgrade the ratings of three French banks because of their exposure to Greek debt.
