What it is

The 5-year Treasury note sits in the middle of the curve. Its yield reflects where the market expects the Fed's rate to average over the next five years, plus a small premium for lending that long.

Medium-term borrowing — some car loans and adjustable-rate mortgages among them — is priced off this part of the curve.

What moves it

  • Expectations for the Fed's rate path over the next few years.
  • Inflation expectations over the same horizon, which the market also reads from inflation-protected Treasuries (TIPS).
