snapping two days of gains, after an advance in U.S. stocks
eased demand for the relative safety of government securities.
The yield on the benchmark 10-year note rose 2 basis points
to 5.01 percent as of 9:14 a.m. in Singapore, according to bond
broker Cantor Fitzgerald LP. The price of the 4 1/2 percent
security due in May 2017 fell 1/8, or $1.25 per $1,000 face
amount, to 96 3/32. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.
