The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield rose to 5.18%, its highest since 2007, causing a sell-off in long-duration Treasury ETFs and raising concerns about sustained high interest rates. This surge impacts not only bonds but also the valuations of growth stocks, especially in technology and AI sectors like Nvidia, as higher yields increase borrowing costs and reduce the attractiveness of future cash flows. Investors are watching Nvidia's upcoming earnings closely, but the rising cost of money may overshadow AI-driven market optimism if yields continue climbing. The last time yields were this high was before the 2008 financial crisis, adding psychological weight to current market fears.
