U.S. Treasuries mixed ahead of 10-year auction, host of FOMC members’ speeches

The U.S. Treasuries traded mixed Tuesday ahead of FOMC member Evans’s speech, scheduled to be held today by 14:00GMT. Also, members Williams and Bostic are due to deliver their speeches on October 10, besides the 10-year auction, due on the same day for added direction in the debt market.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasuries climbed 1-1/2 basis points to 3.244 percent, the super-long 30-year bond yields jumped 3 basis points to 3.427 percent and the yield on the short-term 2-year traded nearly 1 basis point lower at 2.881 percent by 10:50GMT.

In the US, today will bring the NFIB small business optimism index for September.

Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Futures traded 0.42 percent lower at 2,881.50 by 10:55GMT, while at 10:00GMT, the FxWirePro's Hourly Dollar Strength Index remained highly bullish at 126.82 (a reading above +75 indicates a bullish trend, while that below -75 a bearish trend).
