I'm not exactly sure the technical definition, but safe to say it estimates how much movement the market expects of notes within the next few months.
 
Well if it's an orderly decline it's okay.

Then, if I were China, I'd put my $12 billion trade surplus from the US in treasuries, and make a bid for ExxonMobil next :)

Markets still have a lot of information to sort out. The immediate reaction is
30 Yr +0'01
10 Yr +0'08
 5 Yr +0'085

...reflecting Bernanke's and the Beige Book's comments about housing and economic growth slowing down but with a sizable inflation-risk premium.
 
Hi Steve,

Long term rates will still be heading higher: bull market
Short term rates may ease back a bit, but will rise again, the FED is not done yet, overall.
Stocks are acting like it's a refreshing pause in the rising interest rate scenario. A pause.

They are happy that the Fed is acknowledging that housing and growth are slowing.
