What this measures and why it matters

  • 10-Year Treasury Yield sets the cost of capital behind every equipment purchase, lease-versus-buy decision, and payback calculation. When it moves, the hurdle rate for automation and capacity projects moves with it, which changes what investments clear and how quickly they pay back.
  • The figure comes from Federal Reserve via FRED and is reported in %. MFG Calcs archives every published value, so the chart and table below show the full recorded history rather than a single snapshot, and they extend automatically as new data lands.
