10-Year Yield Rises; Nasdaq Poised to Hit New High -- WSJ
Dow Jones2026/10/05 18:07By Angus Berwick and Hannah Erin Lang Treasury yields are trading higher to start the week, with the benchmark U.S. 10-year yield near fresh multidecade highs. The Nasdaq composite meanwhile is leading stock indexes, poised to close at a record. Also in line for an all-time high: Nvidia, the world's largest company by market cap. The moves come on a choppy Monday that has seen modest fluctuations turn more definitive in afternoon trading. AI names are benefitting in part from French engineering firm Schneider Electric's agreement to buy U.S. software maker PTC, a deal designed to prepare its portfolio for industrial artificial intelligence. PTC shares, up more than 30%, are the best performer in the S&P 500. In bonds, the 10-year U.S. bond yield is up to about 5.347%, backed by strong economic data and continued concerns about inflation. The dollar edged higher Monday, close to an almost 18-month peak against a basket of currencies. In Brazil, stocks jumped and the real is rallying more than 4% against the dollar after a first-round victory last night by Flávio Bolsonaro against President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
