After an early move to the upside, treasuries gave back ground over the course of the trading session on Wednesday.
Bond prices pulled back well off their early highs, ending the day roughly flat. Subsequently, the yield on the benchmark ten-year note, which moves opposite of its price, closed unchanged at 3.684 percent after hitting a low of 3.621 percent.
Treasuries initially benefited from bargain hunting following the notable downward move seen over the three previous sessions.
