Percent changes Last 7 days and last 3 weeks (since March 13)


(the yield changes are the percentage points differences,
e.g. for the 2-Y Treasury, it went from 3.93% to 3.85% over the past week. a change of -0.08%)

Treasury notes' yields up means the notes' values are down
as likely people's bond portfolios

Last week was a good week except for the oil price rise

Last 3 weeks was a bad 3 weeks: equity indexes down and Treasury yields up (which means the notes' values went down and likely most people's bond portfolios)

After I file my taxes, I will look at some formatting changes, to represent a positive percent change as e.g. +3.12% rather than just 3.12%.

I wish the minus sign showed up a little more strongly. Or I may make negative numbers in parenthesis and red.

Eventually I'll incorporate the dollar index but I can't do it all right now.
