Three digs to the right of the decimal point on bond yields. ALWAYS
Yes, I know it's a duplicate, but you people (or is it ICE?) steadfastly refuse to fix the issue. And the issue is two-fold. First, two digits leaves the yield open to error. It leaves the change open to error. And in the case of the ^IRX on 3.22.18, the yield, quoted at 1.68% is wrong. It is, in fact, 1.678%. So, I don't much care if it's a duplicate. Just get the problem fixed.

Sorry. Should be three digits to the right of the decimal point on bond yields. ALWAYS. And the same issue rears its head on ^tyx. You say the yield is 3.08%. It is right now (1:40 p.m. ET) 3.077%. Your summary-page yield is wrong.
