Tuesday’s Factors and Events
U.S. government debt yields inched higher Tuesday after United Kingdom lawmakers renounced Prime Minister Theresa May’s Brexit plan and rejected the deal crafted between the U.K. leader and the European Union.
The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to price, was just higher at 2.711 percent, while the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond was higher at 3.072 percent.
May lost by 230 votes after members of the U.K.’s House of Commons voted 432 to 202 to reject the deal. The Withdrawal Agreement faced criticism across the political spectrum. The rejected agreement was the only deal brokered with the EU on how Britain should exit the bloc in March of this year
