U.S. 10-Year Treasury yield above 5 percent as rising interest rates pressure AI and technology stock valuations

The 5% Yield Test: Why the Next AI Buying Opportunity Starts in the Bond Market

Leave a Comment / FINAL RESURRECTION LTD & TITAN OPTIONS CIRCLE /

The temptation after a technology sell-off is to ask which stock has fallen far enough to buy. That may be the wrong question. With the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield above 5%, the more important signal is whether the discount-rate shock is stabilising — because that may determine whether today’s weakness becomes an opportunity or merely

After the Fed Hike, Don’t Buy “Rate-Hike Winners” — Buy the Businesses That Can Outgrow the Discount Rate

Deck: THE REAL POST-FED QUESTION: WHO CAN FINANCE THE GROWTH? The first Federal Reserve rate increase in more than three years changes the investment question. The obvious interpretation is that higher rates are bad for growth stocks because they increase the discount rate applied to future earnings. That remains true. High-growth companies do not become

Leave a Comment / INVESTMENT RESEARCH /

Deck: Calls to slow frontier-AI development have shaken semiconductor stocks and challenged the assumption that ever-faster models automatically justify ever-higher AI spending. Yet the deeper investment question is different: can Big Tech monetise the enormous compute infrastructure already being built even if frontier progress slows? The market may be asking the wrong question about the

U.S. 10-year Treasury yield reaches 5% ahead of the Federal Reserve September 2026 interest-rate decision

Fed Decision Day: Why a Rate Hike May Be the Less Dangerous Choice for Markets

Leave a Comment / TRACKING THE MARKETS /

Deck: With U.S. inflation still above target, Brent crude near $108 and the 10-year Treasury yield testing 5%, the Fed faces an unusual problem: raising rates could hurt risk assets, but refusing to tighten may destabilise the bond market even more. The most important signal ahead of today’s Federal Reserve decision is not that equities

The Question We Should Have Asked First: A New Framework for Detecting Multi-Day Risk-Off Regimes

Leave a Comment / FINAL RESURRECTION LTD & TITAN OPTIONS CIRCLE /

The biggest mistake this week was not failing to predict four declining sessions. It was more fundamental: before analysing AI, semiconductors or individual stocks, we should have asked whether the market was entering a persistent multi-day risk-off regime. That changes how the entire investment process should begin. We asked the questions in the wrong order

Philadelphia Semiconductor Index versus U.S. 10-year Treasury yield as AI momentum confronts higher interest rates

The 4.8% Yield Test: How Should Investors Approach AI Momentum When the Cost of Capital Fights Back?

Leave a Comment / FINAL RESURRECTION LTD & TITAN OPTIONS CIRCLE /

AI earnings remain exceptional, yet the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield is pressing toward 5% and volatility remains unusually subdued. The strategic question is no longer whether AI wins or rates win. It is how to retain exposure to accelerating AI economics without carrying unnecessary valuation, concentration and duration risk. AI may be creating part of

South Korea’s KOSPI surged 4.6% and Japan’s Nikkei 2.1% as semiconductor shares exploded higher — even while oil, rate expectations and currencies signalled tighter financial conditions. The important message is not simply that AI is back. It is that hardware is attempting to reclaim market leadership against a hostile macro backdrop. The strongest signal today

The AI Infrastructure Supercycle: Why Semiconductors May Be More Resilient to Higher Rates Than the Market Assumes

Leave a Comment / INVESTMENT RESEARCH /

Treasury yields near 4.8% should theoretically pressure long-duration technology assets. Yet AI infrastructure spending, semiconductor revenues and capacity commitments continue accelerating. The reason may be structural: for the companies funding the AI buildout, the relevant constraint is increasingly not the price of money — but the availability and productivity of compute. Inventory then travels backwards
