During the Asian trading session, US Treasury yields edged lower, reversing the uptrend caused by investors selling off US Treasuries following stronger-than-expected January employment data. Mohamad Al-Saraf of Danske Bank stated in a report, "Overall, while the January report was undoubtedly strong, the broader trend continues to suggest structural slowing in US employment growth." A $25 billion 30-year bond auction is scheduled for Thursday. According to Tradeweb data, the yields on 2-year and 10-year US Treasuries both fell by 0.4 basis points, standing at 3.506% and 4.178%, respectively.
