  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 1.26 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Hecla Mining Company moved 1.26% on average · correlation 0.17 · higher than 90% of US names

  • On the 10 worst bond days −1.96% 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 −1.81% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24
