10-Year Treasury Yield Climbs To 4.96%, Just Shy Of 5%
The Treasury's own daily par yield curve puts the September 11, 2026 reading at 4.96%, not the flat 5% some are already reporting.
- The 10-year note yielded 4.96% on September 11, 2026, per Treasury's daily par yield curve.
- That curve, not a bank or a news outlet, sets the official benchmark rate for the day.
- A tenth of a percentage point separates the actual reading from the round 5% mark being claimed.
Why it matters: The Treasury's own count still reads under 5%; rounding a number up does not lower what Washington pays to borrow.
