<div id="readability-page-1"><p>The Dow Jones (DJIA) is trading lower on Tuesday as a rout in bonds weighs on tech stocks.</p><h3>Claim 55% Off TipRanks</h3>Trade QQQ with leverage <p>The 30-year Treasury yield is up by 3.6 bps to 5.18% and is at its highest level since April 2007. That places pressure on stocks, as higher yields may encourage investors to rotate capital out of equities and into fixed-income assets. Furthermore, higher yields reduce the present value of future earnings, which in turn lowers valuations. Growth stocks are especially rate-sensitive, since much of their value is tied to cash flows expected in the future.</p> <div><p>Both Citigroup and Barclays believe that 5.5% is the new test for the 30-year yield, up from 5%. &#34;Investors' calculus in terms of buying the dip on Treasuries has changed,&#34; said Citigroup macro rates strategist Jim McCormick. Furthermore, a survey from Bank of America showed that 66% of fund managers expect the yield to top 6% over the next year, a level not seen since June 2020.</p><p>Long-term yields have surged since the start of the U.S.-Iran war on February 28, with rising oil and gas prices adding fuel to the flame. A resilient economy is also contributing to the rally, delaying the timeline for rate cuts. By year-end, the most likely outcome with 41.5% odds is for the Fed to raise rates by 25 bps, according to the CME FedWatch tool. The second most likely outcome at 41.1% is for the Fed to hold rates steady.</p></div> <p>On the U.S.-Iran war front, President Trump called off a planned attack against Iran on Monday evening. The strikes were scheduled for Tuesday, with Trump adding that he would provide Iran with &#34;maybe another two-three days&#34; or until &#34;the beginning of next week&#34; to agree to a deal.</p> <p>The Dow Jones is down by 0.44% at the time of writing.</p></div>
