NEW YORK (AP) - Prices for U.S. Treasury bonds started Wednesday on a strong note amid a nervous climate among investors, and saw those gains grow after the government reported weak factory data for last month.
At 11 a.m. EDT, the 10-year Treasury note was up $3.13 per $1,000 in face value, or 10/32 point, from its level at 5 p.m. Tuesday. Its yield, which moves in the opposite direction, fell to 5.05 percent from 5.09 percent.
The 30-year bond rose 15/32 point. Its yield fell to 5.18 percent from 5.21 percent.
