The ISM services index Tuesday posted a reading of 54.1%, up 2 percentage points from November and above the Dow Jones consensus forecast of 53.4%.

It was the first time the index had eclipsed 60% since January of 2024, said Steve Miller, chair of ISM's Business Survey Committee.

The benchmark 10-year note most recently yielded 4.68%, up .065 percentage point, or 6.5 basis points, on the session.
