As the “Corporal” highlights — the 10 year spike is indeed of concern (esp. in trade/tariff battles) — and several articles point to current dangers of “bond bubble burst” :ohmy:[/b][/color]

Schrödinger’s market theory
the market is nor up or down if you don’t look at it

Thankfully only about 460 points in RED … as Bargain hunters helped DOW recover about 300 points to “+” side near the close as the weekend twitter storm probably not as bad as portrayed … if for the 1st time in decades, if trade & other neglected economic conditions can be further improved, the sell off we’ve seen will quickly be resolved (as we saw in the +640 point gain a week or so ago)

[Assistanc3]

At the close
Dow -1.98% to 23,625.55. S&P -2.67% to 2,570.62. Nasdaq -2.84% to 6,863.42.
Treasurys: 30-year +0.17%. 10-yr +0.13%. 5-yr +0.11%.
Commodities: Crude -2.79% to $63.13. Gold +1.45% to $1,346.50.
Currencies: Euro -0.13% vs. dollar. Yen -0.36%. Pound -0.2%.
