- Main threat
10-Year Treasury Yield Hits 5.23% After Federal Reserve Hikes Policy Rate 25 bps
High-growth, high-multiple stock particularly sensitive to discount rate changes, as most of its value is in distant future cash flows. Increased cost of capital for potential M&A or internal investments.
· Moves discount rate (cost of equity), terminal growth rate, equity risk premium
- Open question
