The S&P 500 has reached a record high even as the 10-year Treasury yield climbs to 5.35%, its highest level since 2002. This resilience is largely due to strong earnings growth, with a 29% increase expected in Q3. However, nearly 60% of this growth is concentrated in the semiconductor and energy sectors. Semiconductor earnings are fueled by hyperscaler capital expenditures, which now consume about 100% of operating cash flow and are increasingly financed through debt linked to Treasury yields. While growth is strong, it cannot continue accelerating indefinitely. Investors are advised to consider protective strategies ahead of major tech earnings announcements, especially with market volatility (VIX) near 15.5.
