Treasuries Finish Choppy Trading Day Roughly Flat

(RTTNews) - After failing to sustain an early move to the upside, treasuries showed a lack of direction over the course of the trading session on Wednesday.

Bond prices bounced back and forth across the unchanged line before closing roughly flat. The yield on the benchmark ten-year note, which moves opposite of its price, edged down by less than a basis point to 3.462 percent.

The choppy trading on the day came as traders look ahead to the release of some key U.S. economic data in the coming days.
