US bond yields have surged above 5%, with the 10-year Treasury around 5.28% and real yields close to 3%.

So what does this actually mean for stock investors?

In this video, we break down why bond yields are rising, why real yields matter, and how higher interest rates can affect stock valuations, technology shares, small caps, corporate credit and the wider market.

We also look at the key question facing investors today:

Can strong corporate earnings continue to offset the pressure from higher bond yields?

For Singapore investors, we also examine the impact on Singapore Government Securities, S-REITs, DBS, OCBC and UOB — and explain why US and Singapore bond yields are behaving very differently.

Fed Holds Rates 10-2; Can Tech Valuations Hold?
QQQ rose 0.60% and the S&P 500 added 0.28% in the Wednesday, October 28 U.S. session, with index reaction restrained after the Fed held rates at 3.75%-4.00% on a 10-2 vote. Tech kept diverging: AMD gained 3.24%, Nvidia fell 1.17%, signaling no broad adding to high-multiple names. Bulls point to steady rates and earnings that can grow into valuations; bears to inflation delaying cuts and, with Alphabet sliding post-earnings, long-duration assets squeezed by yields and capex. What would most convincingly show that tech valuations can withstand the next rate move?
