Average the daily values of the Kim-Wright term premium on a 10-year zero-coupon Treasury bond for January 2027 (FRED series THREEFYTP10) as FRED carries them on February 10, 2027, in its archive ALFRED, and express the average in percent to two decimals. The answer is yes if the average is at or above 0.80%; no if it is below 0.80%.
If the source is late or silent: If on February 10, 2027 FRED does not carry the last business day of January 2027, the test is inconclusive by March 12, 2027, and the Result says what was read and what was missing; a later revision does not change the reading.
