  • Beta, last 3 months −0.08 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.10% 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 +4.93% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24
