U.S. major indices fell on Monday as rising Treasury yields and a strengthening dollar dampened risk sentiment. Investors are reassessing the economic outlook and weighing potential risks tied to the Federal Reserve's next interest rate moves.
Yields on the 10-year Treasury note surged 9 basis points to 4.18%, reaching their highest level since late July. Meanwhile, 30-year Treasury bond yields climbed to 4.5%. The spike in yields pushed the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:TLT) down by 1.4%, reflecting renewed pressure on long-duration bonds.
A gauge of the greenback, as tracked by Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:UUP), rose 0.5%.
On Monday, Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan hinted that gradual rate cuts are on the cards if the economy meets forecasts. Market-implied expectations for a 25-basis-point rate cut in November dipped slightly from 90% to 85%, according to CME FedWatch.
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), commonly known as Wall Street's "fear gauge," jumped 5% on Monday, marking its largest surge in two weeks.
The S&P 500 traded 0.5% lower at midday trading in New York, with all its 11 sectors in the red. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 0.9%, while the Russell 2000, which tracks small-cap stocks, tumbled 1.7%. Technology stocks experienced minor losses.
Despite the negative session, NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) gained over 2%, hitting $141.80 per share and notching fresh all-time highs.
In commodities, gold took a breather after four consecutive sessions of gains, while oil prices rebounded 1.6%, driven by renewed supply concerns. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) fell sharply, losing 2.8%.
