No specific stocks, sectors, or earnings events are discussed.
Community consensus cannot be determined from this single, low-effort comment; the thread lacks substantive analysis.
AI Summary
Summary
Thread dominated by macro concerns: rising bond yields (30-year at 5%, 10Y at 4.6%), high oil ($105), and fears of rate hikes.
Sentiment is split between “buy the dip” bulls and bears warning of a repeat of prior tightening cycles; earnings remain bullish but macro overhang persists.
No individual earnings plays discussed; focus is on Treasuries, oil, and IPO overvaluation.

[+5] u/Charming_Raccoon4361: can not wait for posts asking why market is down and when it will recover
[+21] u/jrex035: Incredible how much of a nothingburger that summit with Xi was
[+12] u/InvestigatorPlus3229: IPO stands for its pretty overpriced
[+12] u/FarrisAT: It’s pretty concerning to see the bond market pricing in the next move as a hike.
I remember distinctly what happened a few months after the prior time that occurred.
[+11] u/SvV_Ying: Markets up 25-30% year on year. Down 0.5% on a day.
Posts here making it look like end of times is here.
[+9] u/PunchTornado: i am buying this dip
[+8] u/InvestigatorPlus3229: mortgage rates going up up up. If you dont own a home already youre ngmi
[+8] u/jimbob57566: It's over
Sell everything right now
[+8] u/FoodCooker62: 10Y pumping to 4.6%, oil at $105 and market moved up more than 1% intraday from the first "serious" dip in like a month, perhaps even ending flat. Markets are definitely meme'ing 😎
[+7] u/dansdansy: Seems like it's because of the 30 year. Inflation read is making everyone pivot against betting on more rate cuts and start considering we may have rate hikes within the next year.
[+7] u/NotGucci: Market is pricing in the 30 year yield. Buy the dip.
[+7] u/parsley_lover: Funny how macro looks bad: high interest rates, high inflation
But earnings are extremely bullish.
[+7] u/gnetc: This place will be a ghost town when we enter a bear market
[+6] u/cupofchupachups: That trip with all those oligarchs and he didn't even come away with enough to tweet about an amazing "deal" that would never come to fruition anyway.
Must have been an absolute disaster and the reason for the dump.
[+6] u/Trvthnvker696967: Today is the single most important day in human history, if the market ends red, it will continue on a liner path until the entire world economy is shut down and we are all hitting each other with bones and sticks. Human civilization will cease to exist. If the market ends green, the entire market will go on an exponential path upwards, we will all be trillionaires, and products will not inflate in price. Humanity will usher in a new golden age of peace and prosperity.
[+6] u/OrneryTea88: [US sells 30-year bonds at 5% yield for first time since 2007](https://www.ft.com/content/11233902-2054-4ed5-b647-26402e7b58bd?syn-25a6b1a6=1)
[+5] u/InvisibleEar: We can release the Epstein files again
[+5] u/Zealousideal-Bus4712: lmao. 30-year UK gilt trading like a shitcoin (yield up 20 bps overnight). wen gilt crisis 2.0?
[+5] u/gigaCHADjeromePOWELL: This is Kevin Warsh's fault!
[+5] u/Even-Ad-6518: My goal in life is to love as powerfully as u/jnas_19 hates bond traders
[+5] u/SvV_Ying: Ngl, I didn’t even check the markets until now. I always try to predict based on the posts here. I thought -2% at least to be honest.
It’s -0,9% and up +0,66% for the week. Come on guys. That’s not a thing to panic about. Makes this place look like kids.
Oil at $105 is cited in a top comment alongside rising yields, yet the market showed intraday strength (+1% from dip). High oil prices typically benefit energy producers, and the market’s resilience suggests energy earnings remain robust. Watch USO / XLE for a potential breakout if oil holds above $105; set a long entry if macro stabilizes. Rate hikes could slow demand and crush oil; “nothingburger” summit with Xi may indicate weak global demand.
