Staking New Rate Lows? 10yr Closes Below 2%
For the first time in history the yield on the 10-year Treasury Note closed below 2%. It closed today at 1.996% yield. The day of the Lehman BK was the only other day it went below 2% but on that day it closed at 2.03%. We are in uncharted territory and could see record low mortgage rates. It will take some time for investors to get comfortable with these numbers.
