Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Sustained higher long-term yields depress present value of future cash flows, weighing on equities. The combination of 10-year near 4.7% and 30-year above 5.3%, plus weak demand at the 30-year auction, has coincided with the S&P 500 weakness and suggests further volatility as debt issuance and inflation dynamics evolve.
