Yields on Treasury Notes and Bonds

Research
1

I looked at running a screen using yields on government debt as criteria. I first tried to use the 10 year note, using #NOTE10YR, and tried #BOND30YEAR. Just for kicks I decided to run dividend yield against them, looking for stocks with a higher yield. The result of the rule Yield>#NOTE10YR and 30YEAR were showing 0 stocks passed the rule.

In a separate test I set a rule of the 30 year to be under 10 on the current date. It came back that the yield was higher than 10.

What is going on here? What am I doing wrong/missing?

To check the value of a series you can use the ShowVar function in the screener and then set the view to Screen Factors.

ShowVar(@yld10, #NOTE10YR) // (My initial attempt was incorrect and wwasilev showed the right way in post below.)
The 10y yield appeared as 45,330

ShowVar(@yld10, Close(0,#NOTE10YR))
The 10y yield shows at 1.68

Treasury website has 10Y yield at 2.12
