Yields on 10-year notes fell today to 2.59%, after touching the lowest level since March 2009, which marked the beginning of the new bull market. Treasury prices rose today as investors dumped equities after reports on manufacturing in the New York region, U.S. homebuilder confidence, and Japan's growth fueled worries that global growth is sputtering out. The iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF TLF is higher by $2.54, or 2.48%, to $104.83.
