U.S. Treasury Yield Curve
Maturity is drawn on a logarithmic time axis, so the short end gets the room it deserves. Line color reflects the curve's shape.
Reference Shapes Comparison
Your curve against two illustrative textbook shapes: a healthy upward-sloping curve and a pre-recession inversion (late-2006 style, approximate).

Where the curve slopes — segment by segment
Each bar is the yield change between neighboring maturities, in basis points. Red bars below the dashed zero line are inverted segments — this shows exactly where the inversion lives.

Forward Rate Calculator

The forward rate is the future interest rate the current curve implies: investing to the end period must earn the same as investing to the start period and rolling into the forward. Formula: (1+y₂)t₂ = (1+y₁)t₁ × (1+f)t₂−t₁.

Spot Rates vs Implied Forwards
Green bars are today's spot rates; amber bars are the forward rates the curve implies for future periods. Forwards below spots mean the market is pricing in falling rates.

Bond Portfolio Impact Analysis

Estimates how a parallel yield shift changes portfolio value using the standard duration + convexity approximation: ΔV ≈ −D·Δy·V + ½·C·(Δy)²·V.

Bond Price, Duration & Convexity Calculator

Exact cash-flow math for an annual-pay bond: price, Macaulay & modified duration, convexity, and DV01 — the numbers the Portfolio Impact tab consumes.

Term Premium Estimator

A rough decomposition of the 10-year yield into an expected-short-rate path (proxied by the average of the 3M, 1Y, 2Y and 5Y points) plus whatever is left over — the term premium investors demand for holding duration risk.
