Treasury Yields Top 5%: These 20 Stocks Tanked In Just One Hour
A sharp jump in Treasury yields following Wednesday's weak 20-year bond auction triggered a swift market reaction, with several high-growth and tech names plunging between 1:05 p.m. and 2:05 p.m. ET—the exact window 30-year yields spiked above 5.08%.
Tempus AI Inc. (NASDAQ:TEM) led the decline, falling 6.9%, followed by Hims & Hers Health Inc. (NYSE:HIMS), which dropped 5%, data from Benzinga Pro platform shows.
AI infrastructure firm CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWV) slid 4.4%, while Bitcoin-linked Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR) tumbled 4.3%.
Trading platform Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) lost 3.7%.
The selloff came as investors repriced risk across equities amid fears of persistently higher rates, sparked by soft demand at the 20-year Treasury auction.
The bid-to-cover ratio of 2.46 landed near the bottom quartile of the past 50 auctions, with the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:TLT), sliding to a 19-month low.
Notable losers among the 20 movers with at least $10 billion market cap also included Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:PLTR), Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN) and Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA), with declines of 3.1%, 2.9% and 2.7%, respectively.
Semiconductor names also came under pressure, as ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:ON) fell 2.8%, while Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:SMCI) lost 3% during the hour-long selloff. Other high-beta tech stocks such as Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:CRDO) and Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ:MBLY) each dropped over 3%, reflecting broad-based risk aversion triggered by the Treasury market spike.
The weakness extended into biotech and aerospace sectors as well, with Summit Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:SMMT) and Rocket Lab USA Inc. (NASDAQ:RKLB) down 2.7% and 3.5%, respectively.
