🚨 STOCKS | The Biggest Risk to AI Stocks Today May Not Be AI — It’s the Bond Market
A major macro pressure is building underneath the stock market.
Long-term U.S. Treasury yields have climbed to around two-decade highs, while the global bond selloff spread into Asian markets on September 25.
And that matters directly for the most expensive part of the stock market:
AI and mega-cap tech.
Higher long-term yields increase the discount rate investors apply to future earnings.
In simple terms:
Higher yields → more expensive capital → harder-to-justify valuations.
That’s especially important for stocks where investors are already pricing in years of aggressive AI growth.
The names to watch when Wall Street opens:
$NVDA • $META • $MSFT • $AMZN • $GOOGL • $AMD • $AVGO
There is another pressure point.
The U.S. dollar is heading toward roughly a 1% weekly gain as markets increasingly price the possibility of further Federal Reserve tightening.
So today’s setup isn’t simply:
“Is AI demand still strong?”
It’s becoming:
“How much are investors willing to pay for AI growth when long-term yields keep rising?”
Important timing note:
Thursday’s U.S. session is already over.
The Treasury move during the September 25 Asian/overnight session is the fresh development to watch heading into today’s Wall Street trading.
👀 Watch U.S. yields at the open.
If yields continue climbing, high-valuation AI stocks could face another valuation test.
