🚨 Why Buy Stocks When Government Bonds Now Pay 5%+ Risk-Free?


Global Bond Yields Just Exploded Higher.
U.S. 10-Year Treasury: 4.593% (+3.05% in one session)
U.S. 30-Year: 5.118% (+2.09%)
Japan 10-Year: 2.713% (+3.08%)
This is not normal. 🚨
Three things driving this:
Inflation is not coming down. CPI and PPI both hotter than expected.
Central banks staying hawkish. Fed holding rates higher for longer. Bank of Japan abandoning ultra-low rates.
Geopolitical chaos. Energy prices spiking. Inflation expectations rising.
What this means:
Bond prices are falling hard. Yields and prices move opposite.
Stocks under pressure. When risk-free government bonds pay 5%+ why take equity risk?
Your portfolio just got more expensive to finance.
When the 30-Year hits 5.12% the entire financial system reprices.
Is this the start of the next selloff?
