2-Year Yield Falls 6 bps to 4.19% (Aug 7, 2026)

Topping the Treasury yield curve on Friday, August 7, 2026, is the 20-year rate at 5.20 percent, with the 30-year Treasury yield just beneath at 5.19 percent; the lowest reading, 3.79 percent, is shared by the 4-week Treasury bill rate and the 6-week bill rate. Every maturity on the curve moved lower compared with the prior business day. The 30-year Treasury yield slipped from 5.22 percent, the 10-year Treasury rate eased to 4.65 percent from 4.69 percent, and the 2-year Treasury rate fell to 4.19 percent from 4.25 percent. The 3-year rate came in at 4.25 percent after 4.31 percent, the 5-year rate at 4.35 percent after 4.40 percent, and the 7-year rate at 4.49 percent after 4.53 percent.

Shorter maturities also edged down. The 4-week Treasury bill rate ticked to 3.79 percent from 3.80 percent, the 3-month rate dropped to 3.87 percent from 3.90 percent, and the 6-month rate settled at 3.96 percent after 3.99 percent. The 20-year rate stood at 5.20 percent versus 5.22 percent the day before.

Against one week ago, the 30-year Treasury yield is down from 5.27 percent and the 10-year Treasury rate is lower than its 4.75 percent level on July 31, while the 2-year Treasury rate has declined from 4.28 percent. Over thirty days, rates moved higher across the curve: the 30-year rose from 5.06 percent, the 20-year climbed from 5.07 percent, and the 10-year advanced from 4.56 percent. Year over year, the 10-year rate of 4.65 percent exceeds the 4.23 percent recorded on August 7, 2025, and the 30-year yield of 5.19 percent is above 4.81 percent. One inversion appears on the curve, with the 20-year rate sitting above the 30-year yield; thirty days ago the two stood at 5.07 percent and 5.06 percent, and a year ago both were equal at 4.81 percent.
