2-year Treasury yield, 1976 to 2026
About this statistic
2-year Treasury yield stood at 4 in 2026, up 2.8% on the previous period.
2-year Treasury yield is a daily market rate from U.S. Treasury data published through FRED. Treasury yields set the baseline for borrowing costs across the economy: mortgages, corporate debt, and equity valuations all price off this curve. Since 1976 the series has ranged from 0.1 percent (2021) to 16 percent (1981); the latest reading is 4.1 percent for 2026, up from 4.0 percent the period before.
Daily series are noisy up close and legible from a distance. The multi-year arc tracks inflation expectations and Federal Reserve policy more than any single day's trading.
