- Bond yields rose relentlessly higher across CNBC, Bloomberg, and MarketWatch coverage, deepening the bond-market selloff and leaving Wall Street weighing how much more tech stocks could absorb.
- Trump spurned Iran's offer, per Bloomberg, framing the bond selloff as driven at least partly by a diplomatic rebuff rather than purely mechanical yield dynamics.
Why it matters: Rising Treasury yields raise borrowing costs across mortgages, corporate debt, and equity valuations. Bloomberg's framing matters because attributing the selloff partly to Trump's rejection of Iran means the market's pain is now tethered to a geopolitical choice, not just Fed policy expectations.
