NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. Treasuries prices
augmented early gains Friday after the government reported a
slightly weaker-than-forecast 2.4 percent rise in
second-quarter economic growth.
The benchmark U.S. 10-year Treasury note, up
10/32 in price before the report on gross domestic product was
released, was up 17/32 after the report, its yield easing to
2.92 percent from 2.99 percent late Thursday.
The 30-year Treasury bond was up 1-5/32, its
yield easing to 4.01 percent from 4.08 percent Thursday.
