TRADING DAY Tech, tariffs & Treasuries

U.S. bond yields fell and tech weighed on U.S. stocks on Monday, as investors digested a raft of economic measures and developments coming out of Washington: U.S. Treasury's plans to increase buybacks of long-dated bonds, new 'economic D-Day' sanctions to isolate Iran, and the threat of new tariffs on Canada.

  • US bond yields and stocks declined as investors reacted to Treasury's plans for bond buybacks, new sanctions on Iran, and potential tariffs on Canada.
  • Concerns are raised about Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's credibility due to market interventions and failure to meet deficit reduction and yield lowering goals.
  • Upcoming events include Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's Jackson Hole speech and potential trade disputes between the US and Canada, adding to market uncertainty.
