Yields on 10-year Treasury notes on Tuesday morning finally reached the elusive 3% level, which the benchmark interest rate hadn't seen since January 2014. The yield flirted with the level all day Monday, but it was Tuesday's stronger-than-expected home prices as measured by the S&P/Case-Shiller index that pushed it across the line. The rise in the 10-year yield, a benchmark for things like home mortgages and company borrowing, has the potential to dampen spending as consumers and companies spend more to service their debt. It's also closely watched by stock traders. And sure enough, stocks started tumbling once the 3% level was breached.
