The Story

The clearest tell on Friday wasn't in stocks — it was in bonds. The 10-year Treasury yield held near 4.54% as traders erased the rate cuts they'd been counting on. When the jobs data is strong, the bond market stops pricing rescue.

What This Means For The Book

I side with the bond market more often than the stock market — it's the adult in the room. Its message all year has been consistent: rates stay higher for longer. We've kept the book tilted to companies that earn cash today rather than promises tomorrow, and Friday was one more vote for that posture.
