The yield on benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury notes fell 2.4 basis points to 1.644%, roughly midpoint of a trading range its held after briefly spiking above 1.7% in mid-March. This is a positive signal for the oil market! «We indicated that we will continue to increase our holdings of Treasury securities by at least $80 billion per month and our holdings of agency mortgage-backed securities by at least $40 billion per month until substantial further progress, measured relative to the December 2020 announcement, has been made toward our maximum-employment and price-stability goals.» the Vice Chair Fed Richard H. Clarida said. This factor will provide additional support to the oil market.
