A for the answer

Choice B, 100K-200K, which means the U.S. job market still growing, but at a more moderate pace. Thank you & big ‘Like’ @TigerEvents 👍🏻

Good News Still Needs Follow-Through My takeaway from Wednesday's session is that a reassuring headline is not enough. Cooler inflation gave the market a reason to rally, but buyers struggled to hold the move. I care more about that reaction than the story I wanted the market to tell. These are my risk-review and watchlist plans for the next session, not a report of orders placed or trades completed. The contrast between the indices and the broader market keeps me cautious. Technology offered some support, yet participation elsewhere remained weak. Rising longer-term bond yields added another complication. I do not need to settle the whole macroeconomic debate before managing a trade; I need to notice when the conditions around it are becoming less forgiving. EMBJ is the first holding I wa

However, it might be a short term catalyst as macro issues such as oil price war, inflated treasury yield prices and countries being inflection inside of collaboration d/t Trump strategy to cause tension and divison. Coupled with the traditional “bearish” period coming up as fund managers rebalance their portfolios, let’s see if indices can continue breaking new high, or fall like a knife.[Spurting] @PawsAndProfits - Specialist in combining FA and TA for Options selling and Swing trading.[666]

Weekly Overview Treasuries are the market’s pricing anchor. With the 10-year Treasury yield above 5%, equities, gold, and crypto assets all need to be reassessed in light of high-rate pressure. The Treasury Department’s earlier buybacks failed to reverse the trend in long-dated bonds. A peak in yields still needs confirmation. If oil remains range-bound, and with the two remaining rate hikes expected this year already priced in, the rise in yields may slow. But an escalation in U.S.–Iran tensions or more hawkish statements from the Fed could change that assessment. The conditions for a bond rebound are building. CTAs’ positioning in 10-year Treasuries is low, while speculative net positions in 10-year Treasuries have moved from deeply bearish to neutral, increasing the possibility of a bon

A. Below 100K. My prediction is around 90K jobs added in September. The labour market does not look like it is collapsing, but hiring appears to be cooling despite relatively low layoffs. For the bonus question, I think Treasury yields move first if payrolls significantly beat expectations. A strong jobs print could quickly shift expectations towards tighter Fed policy, pushing yields and the U.S. dollar higher. Stocks, especially rate-sensitive growth and tech names, could then come under pressure as higher yields are priced in.

$Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$   The Nasdaq Held. The Long Bond Didn't. My Calls Followed The Wrong One. Mathematical Money | September 30, 2026 The question going round is whether elevated yields break the tech bull. I think that's the wrong place to be looking, and I can show you why using my own book rather than theory. Start with what actually happened The 30-year Treasury yield touched just above 5.6% on Monday, the highest since June 2002, and the 10-year sits around 5.24%. Now look at what that did to two different things over the last three months. TLT, the long-dated Treasury ETF, is down about 9.5%. QQQ is up about 0.2%. Three months. The bond market has been repriced violently and the Nasdaq has gone sideways — Monday's 0.9% slip in QQQ is

Elevated Treasury yields are applying significant valuation pressure on tech stocks. We saw QQQ drops more than 1%. So in this article, we would like to share our comprehensive analysis of valuation pressure, balance sheet strength, and strategic ETF allocation to look at whether elevated yields would break the tech bull. 1. Introduction: The Yield-Valuation Tug-of-War The relationship between fixed-income markets and equity valuations has once again taken center stage. When benchmark sovereign yields climb, the gravitational pull on risk assets intensifies. Recently, a swift upward repricing in Treasury yields triggered immediate defensive selling across growth equities, pushing major benchmarks like the Nasdaq 100 tracking ETF ( $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$

Interesting and should look into it 

The Nasdaq is back at record highs, AI stocks are leading again, and one Tiger investor is sitting on a US$42,309 gain in TQQQ. Congrats to the @mushrooz who is up US$42,309 on TQQQ. The latest Nasdaq rally has been driven by more than just another round of AI hype.Semiconductors, memory and mega-cap tech have all participated. AMD, Intel and Arm surged in the same session earlier this month, while names like Micron and SanDisk later joined the move. Investors are still betting that AI spending has further to run, and that more of that spending will eventually show up in revenue and earnings. That matters because the biggest concern around AI has never really been whether companies would spend. The concern was whether all that spending

The Federal Reserve raised rates by 25 basis points in September, lifting the target range for the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%. With inflation pressure prompting a shift in policy, rate expectations have again become a key driver of asset prices. Options positioning on September 25 showed a defensive tilt even as Nasdaq 100 futures rebounded: traders added near-the-money puts. Gold call positions expanded at higher strikes alongside downside protection, while new Bitcoin call positions appeared to reflect a short-term test of the upside. Against the backdrop of the rate hike, traders have not moved uniformly toward risk. The next question is whether prices can confirm the signals at key levels. The charts below show trading volume and open interest across major CME Group futures opti

Guess A. What will the market be if A happen?

English version: If there is only one number worth watching closely in today's market, it is probably the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield. It is no longer just a KPI for bond traders; it has become a common pricing anchor for U.S. equities, gold, crude oil and even Bitcoin. With that anchor pushed to a historic high of 5.2%, and the market having priced in both of the remaining rate hikes this year, a more important question arises: How much higher can it go? $美国2年期国债收益率(US2Y.BOND)$ $美国10年期国债收益率(US10Y.BOND)$ $美元ETF-PowerShares DB(UUP)$ I. One Master Switch Holds the Reins of Every Asset Let me start with the c

B — 100K–200K. I expect September payroll growth to land around 120K–150K. August’s 162K gain showed the labor market still has some resilience, but the broader trend is clearly cooling, while private hiring has been relatively subdued. The interesting part is that “good jobs data” may not mean good news for stocks. A strong print could push October hike expectations higher, lifting Treasury yields and pressuring high-duration tech valuations. But a moderate slowdown could be the sweet spot: enough cooling to reduce rate pressure without triggering recession fears. With oil prices already adding inflation risk, I’m watching wages and unemployment more than the headline payroll number. If payrolls come in around 130K with wage growth cooling, markets may interpret it as a soft landing sign

The September jobs report will be important because it could influence the Fed’s October rate decision. The three scenarios are: Below 100K: Shows faster labor-market cooling. This could reduce pressure for another rate hike, but may raise concerns about economic growth. 100K–200K: Shows moderate job growth and could give the Fed more flexibility to wait. 200K–300K: Shows stronger employment. It could increase expectations of another rate hike, potentially pushing Treasury yields and the U.S. dollar higher. Investors should also watch wage growth, unemployment, and revisions to previous months, not just the headline payroll number. For stocks and gold, the reaction may depend on whether the data is strong or weak relative to expectations.
