- Wall Street recovered from a tech selloff as Treasury yields retreated, with Moderna surging to lift healthcare stocks and the Dow gaining 100 points while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq edged higher.
- Treasury's planned buybacks calmed a stressed bond market, helping yields ease and giving beaten-down tech stocks room to bounce alongside the broader rally.
Why it matters: Treasury buybacks directly eased bond market stress, freeing tech stocks to recover from the selloff, while Moderna's surge single-handedly lifted the healthcare sector — a narrow rally dependent on just two catalysts rather than broad market conviction.
