Markets
Tech stocks sold off hard today — SPY dropped 2.6% and the Nasdaq fell 4.8% — as the 10-year Treasury yield climbed 1.3 percent and signaled rising rate expectations.
- Why it matters: When Treasury yields spike, growth stocks get punished because their future earnings are worth less in today's dollars. NVDA, TSLA, and DELL each dropped over 6%, which tells you the market is repricing what expensive tech is actually worth. Meanwhile AAPL held up better at down 1.2%, suggesting defensive positioning.
- Watch for: Friday's jobs report will either confirm the Fed's narrative that the economy is cooling or prove that inflation pressure is still real. If unemployment ticks up, this selling gets validated. If job growth stays hot, you're looking at another round.
- What to bring up: Bitcoin climbed 1.6% while everything else cratered — that's the classic flight-to-alternative-assets move when people stop trusting where rates are headed. Not a sign of confidence in tech, more a sign people are hedging their bets.

OuraOura tracks sleep stages, body temperature, and readiness in a ring that looks like jewelry. Battery lasts 5–7 days. The daily readiness score is accurate enough to schedule around — if it says 45%, you probably feel like 45%. The honest trade-off: the ring is $349 upfront plus $6/month for the app, and the heart-rate workout tracking is genuinely inferior to Apple Watch or Garmin. If you want sleep data and don't want a wristband, it's the best option. If you want workout tracking too, get the Whoop instead.
