The municipal market remained especially volatile during April from significant uncertainty regarding COVID-19. Treasury rates have continued to stay almost 2% lower than this time last year throughout the yield curve. As of April 30th, the futures market does not expect a rate increase during 2020 with at least a 96.5% probability of rates remaining close to zero for the remainder of the year.
