US Equities Decline as 30-Year Treasury Yield Reaches 2004 High
Yahoo Finance ·
Wall Street equities retreated for the second consecutive session on Thursday, pressured by soaring crude oil prices and Treasury yields reaching multi-decade peaks. By 11:25 a.m. Eastern Time, the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.8 percent, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.6 percent, and the S&P 500 shed 0.5 percent. Technology stocks faced additional headwinds following data center complications for Oracle. The sell-off was primarily driven by the fixed-income market, where the 30-year Treasury yield climbed to 5.446 percent, marking its highest point since June 2004, while the 10-year yield touched 5.15 percent. Consequently, market expectations for an October Federal Reserve rate hike surged to 71 percent from roughly 55 percent a week prior, and average mortgage rates spiked to a multi-year peak of 7.1 percent amidst ongoing economic adjustments.

DYAX 전담 분석
The surge in Treasury yields directly increases the valuation burden on tech and growth stocks by raising the discount rate for future cash flows. In particular, with mortgage rates soaring to 7.1%, a slowdown in the real estate market and consumer goods demand is expected.
The bullish scenario is that the peak interest rate theory emerges and bond buying flows in, while the bearish scenario is that sticky inflation makes the Fed's additional rate hikes a reality. Future Treasury yield trends and consumer price indicators must be closely monitored.
