Analysis

10Y at 5.28% Is the Elephant in the Room

The US 10Y yield rose another 4bp to 5.28%, a level that has historically triggered equity multiple compression. The 2s10s spread now sits at +129bp — an aggressively steep curve suggesting the market is pricing persistent inflation or elevated term premium. Equities are ignoring this for now (SPX +0.73%, NDX +1.19%), but the divergence between rising long rates and rising equity prices is unsustainable. Portfolio implication: duration-sensitive tech names face increasing gravity from discount rate mechanics.
