The U.S. Labor Department said the consumer price index rose 0.2 percent in October, matching the median forecast among economists polled by Reuters. The core CPI rate, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was up 1.9 percent on a year-over-year basis, which is just short of the Fed's 2 percent inflation goal.
The yield on two-year Treasuries notes was up 3 basis points at 0.880 percent, while the five-year Treasuries yield was up nearly 4 basis points at 1.689 percent.
