Analysis

10Y at 5.18% Is the Macro Story — Everything Else Is Derivative

The 10-year yield rose another 0.43% to 5.18% while the 2-year barely moved (+0.05% to 4.07%), producing a steepening that screams term premium repricing, not rate expectations. This 111bp positive slope with elevated absolute yields is toxic for risk assets priced on duration — and yet SPX still rose 0.51%. That equity-bond divergence is unstable and historically resolves in favor of the rates signal. Crypto, more honest in its repricing, is down 2.5-5% across the board.
