Question
U.S. Treasury 10Y and 30Y yields hold above 5.00% — TLT duration de-rates
Direct answer
The 10-year and 30-year Treasury yields are above 5.00%, the highest long-duration cost of capital since 2002. TLT downside follows higher term premium and mortgage/corporate discount rates; invalidates if both long yields close back below 5.00%. — bearish pressure on TLT.
