U.S. government debt prices were broadly higher on Friday morning as investors continued to digest the Federal Reserve's decision to raise interest rates.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note was higher at around 2.582 percent, while the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond was also lower at 3.144 percent. Yields move inversely to prices. This comes after a sharp rise for bond yields in recent sessions.
