Still priced, no longer analyzed. Risk numbers below are as of Oct 13, 2010, analytics stop about three months before maturity, because a security with one cashflow left does not have a meaningful yield curve exposure.

Yield and duration are withheld this close to maturity, not missing. Inside a month a Treasury trades on settlement mechanics rather than on yield, and its price is a rounding of par, annualizing a two-day stub produces a number in the tens of percent that would be arithmetically correct and completely misleading. The price, the residual and the key rate durations below are unaffected.

Sensitivity to a one basis point move at each point on the curve, in years. All of it sits at 3M. For a security with a single remaining cashflow that is the true shape, not missing data.

Against the fitted curve

Priced 1.08 cents per 100 of face cheap to the curve on that day.

Shown as a price rather than a yield. This security was close enough to maturity that annualizing is meaningless, the same reason it carries no yield to maturity above, and the same difference quoted in basis points would read as an enormous mispricing rather than the few cents it is.

Auction

A CUSIP can be auctioned more than once: Treasury reopens an existing security rather than issuing a new one, so the same bond is sold again at whatever yield the market then wants.

The curve this was priced against →

Index levels before September 30, 2026 are back-tested. They were computed after the fact by applying the rules to historical data, which benefits from hindsight in the choice of rules, and an index cannot be invested in directly. Methodology v1.0 takes effect at that rebalance, when levels begin to be struck on the day; the rulebook is identical either way, and the version is published on every row.

A fitted curve is a fit, not a quote. Daily error averages 3.8 basis points across the history and reaches about 20 on the worst days, in December 2008, when the market was genuinely hard to fit one smooth curve to. Every curve page publishes its own fit error rather than burying it.

Free to benchmark against. Paid only to track. Measuring anything against these curves and indices is free. No license, no fee, no registration, and no permission needed to say that you did, including in a prospectus. A fee applies to one thing: launching a product that tracks an index.
