Nasdaq 100 to long-term Treasury ratio hits 15-month low as investors flee risk assets and rotate into bonds amid AI selloff concerns.
Macro & Markets ·
The Nasdaq 100 to long-term Treasury bond ratio has fallen to 342.5, marking its weakest level in 15 months as investors shift capital away from equities and into fixed income. The metric has declined 15.4 percent since reaching an all-time high on October 7th, driven by a 10.2 percent drop in the Nasdaq 100 alongside a 7.1 percent gain in the 20+ year Treasury ETF. The ratio is experiencing its fifth straight weekly loss, the longest streak since the 2022 bear market, as investors seek bond protection amid concerns about an artificial intelligence correction.
