What it means
The prior signal already captured the equity reaction to the Fed hold. What is genuinely new here is the 30-year yield hitting its highest level since 2007 — a move driven by term premium and fiscal concerns rather than just Fed policy. Rising long-end yields have historically been associated with continued pressure on long-duration bonds and meaningful pain for rate-sensitive sectors like homebuilders.
