How it trades on rate days beta 0.45 to TLT · on the worst bond days it held up better than the market

How it trades on rate days

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

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.45 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Dropbox Inc moved 0.45% on average · correlation 0.12 · higher than 39% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 1.02 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.26% 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 −4.56% 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 — Dropbox Inc

DBX 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
Dropbox provides a content collaboration platform that lets individuals, families, teams and organisations store, sync and share files, free or through paid subscription tiers with added features. Customers span professional services, technology, media, education, industrial, retail and financial sectors. Incorporated in 2007 under the name Evenflow, it is headquartered in San Francisco.
Where it sits in the stack
Dropbox holds no seat in Rubin, our AI build-out index, so it sits outside that stack; within our wider universe it belongs to the Software - Infrastructure sleeve, alongside file-storage and collaboration platforms rather than chip, compute or data-centre names.
Who it is priced against
The diary has grouped it with collaboration and project-management software such as Slack, Zoom and Notion when weighing which tools face the most disruption from software agents; the market also names Box as a comparable file-sharing rival.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It sits in the Russell 1000 and carries no Closelooknet score. The diary has mentioned it twice: once in a dossier mapping which SaaS categories are most exposed to agentic software, and once as an honourable mention in a piece testing whether a SaaS sector bottom was genuine.
What the diary watches
Whether project-management and file-sharing tasks increasingly move to software agents that manage workflows natively, since the diary's own coverage has flagged that risk for Dropbox's category.

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.
