How it trades on rate days

How BIO has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.49 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc moved 0.49% on average · correlation 0.13 · higher than 40% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months −0.01 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.20% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +2.29% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc

BIO in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Bio-Rad supplies tools for life-science research and for clinical diagnostics, organised into two segments. The Life Science side sells instruments, reagents and consumables that separate, purify and analyse cells, proteins and nucleic acids for laboratories, biopharma manufacturers and food-safety testers. The Clinical Diagnostics side sells test systems, test kits, informatics and quality controls used in hospital, reference and transfusion laboratories. It reaches customers directly and through distributors, and is based in Hercules, California.
Where it sits in the stack
Bio-Rad carries no seat in our Rubin index for the AI build-out, so it sits instead in the medical-devices sleeve of our wider universe, alongside other life-science tools and diagnostics suppliers.
Who it is priced against
The diary has not set a Closelooknet peer group for this name; the comparison the market usually draws is with Thermo Fisher Scientific, another supplier of life-science tools and diagnostics equipment of similar breadth.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Bio-Rad holds a Russell 1000 seat but no Rubin seat and no Closelooknet score yet. It has appeared once in the diary, cited in a Midday 10 note that grouped it among health-care and biotech names making new highs alongside a broader ex-tech breadth thesis.
What the diary watches
Whether Bio-Rad keeps showing up on broad health-care new-high lists as a sign of sector-wide breadth, or whether its diagnostics and life-science segments start to diverge in trend.

How to use this chart

Toolbar

  • Range — 1M to MAX on daily closes. 1D/5D switch a US stock cell to 5-minute intraday bars; index and foreign cells fall back to 1M daily with a note.
  • Grid — 1×1 up to 2×2. Cells are synchronized: pan or zoom one and the others follow the same dates; the crosshair tracks across all of them. 4 INDICES loads Rubin · HALO · AEI · AW40 side by side.
  • Type / Scale — OHLC, line or area; linear or log price axis.

Picking a series

  • Tap the box in a cell's header to browse every Closelooknet series — headline indices, sub-indices, sectors, layers of all six families — plus the constituents.
  • Or type any ticker (NVDA, 7203.T, ASML.AS …) and press Enter — it charts in the cell straight from our data lake.

Studies

  • Overlays / Oscillators rows toggle the standard set (SMA, Bollinger, RSI, MACD …) per cell.
  • Levels (stock cells) draws the structure engine's support lines — regression bands, pivot cluster, SMA-200, the active fib zone.

Drawing

  • Tap a tool (Trend, Ray, H-Line, Fib, Channel, Rect, Note), then tap the chart once per point — the shape follows your finger or cursor between taps. The chart stops panning while a tool is armed; tap the tool again to release.
  • Drawings save per symbol in this browser and travel between the terminal and the asset page.
  • Delete key removes the selected drawing · Escape cancels a half-placed one · Clear wipes the symbol.

Wave counts

  • Wave places an Elliott count: tap the origin, then each wave end. Press Enter to stop early (inside wave 3 is fine) — dotted ghost targets sketch the remaining waves at guideline ratios.
  • On stocks the scanner's machine count appears automatically in grey — it is fully editable: drag any point, double-tap a label to remove it, Delete to dismiss it for good, Adopt to bring the machine's proposal back.
  • The sequence picker switches 1-5 / A-B-C / A-E / W-X-Y-Z; 1 2 3 cycles the degree; Subdiv starts a one-degree-smaller child count inside a wave.

Sharing

  • Card exports the cell as a branded PNG — chart, drawings and levels exactly as shown.
