Moves in duration reprice equity multiples and credit conditions across the whole board, not just one sector. Rate-sensitive growth stocks, REITs, and long-duration tech usually feel the move first when the long end jumps or collapses. Yields are the transmission with the 10Y near 5.05%: the equity implication only sticks if the long end stays in motion after the headline. Follow-through in the 10Y over the next session.
