The 30-year Treasury yield reached 5.67%, the highest since 2002-05.
What happened
The 30-year Treasury yield reached 5.67%, the highest since 2002-05, according to yfinance's rates watch.
What it means for the Nasdaq and TQQQ
A 30-year Treasury yield at 5.67% can influence the discount rates investors use to value future earnings, a channel that tends to matter for growth-heavy indexes like the Nasdaq-100. Because TQQQ seeks roughly 3x the Nasdaq-100's daily moves, swings in the index can be amplified in the fund. The yield level can also shape broader rate expectations, which may affect risk appetite.
