How it trades on rate days beta 0.64 to TLT · on the worst bond days it fell more than the market

How it trades on rate days

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

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.64 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), 3M Company moved 0.64% on average · correlation 0.23 · higher than 65% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.77 about the same as over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −1.30% 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 −1.63% 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 — 3M Company

MMM 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
3M makes a wide range of industrial and consumer products, organised into three segments: Safety and Industrial, Transportation and Electronics, and Consumer. Safety and Industrial covers abrasives, adhesives, tapes, protective equipment and electrical materials for construction and manufacturing. Transportation and Electronics covers ceramics, vehicle films, signage and materials used in semiconductor packaging and data centres. Consumer covers home cleaning, stationery, and personal-care products. It sells through wholesalers, retailers and distributors worldwide and is based in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Where it sits in the stack
3M holds no seat in Rubin, our AI build-out index, so it sits outside that framework; the diary places it in the conglomerates sleeve of the Industrials sector, alongside other diversified manufacturers.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group ranks 3M with other US conglomerates — Toyota Tsusho, Honeywell International and Fujikura — grouped on trend state rather than score since none is scored; Honeywell is also the name the wider market names as its closest comparison.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
3M is a Dow Jones Industrial Average constituent and carries no Closelooknet score. The diary has quoted it once, in a strategy piece on covered-call income among slow-compounding dividend names, listed alongside Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether 3M's price stabilises above its short-term average or keeps drifting further below it, since that trend state, not a score, currently sets how its peer group is read.
