How it trades on rate days

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

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 2.11 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Super Micro Computer Inc moved 2.11% on average · correlation 0.21 · higher than 100% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 2.30 about the same as over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −5.39% 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 +0.17% 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 — Super Micro Computer Inc

SMCI 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
Super Micro Computer designs and sells servers and storage systems built on modular, open-standard architecture. It offers liquid- and air-cooled AI servers for training and inference, blade and multi-node systems, storage arrays, rackmount and embedded systems, plus software to manage server fleets. Customers include enterprise data centres, cloud providers, AI developers and edge-computing operators. It is headquartered in San Jose, California.
Where it sits in the stack
SMCI carries no seat in our Rubin index; it sits in the AI server builders sleeve of our universe, the group that assembles GPUs, networking and cooling into deployable racks. One diary note places it among systems-and-integrator names valued for how fast they can turn a chip design into a working cabinet.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group compares it with Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Lenovo Group, on the basis that these are the AI server builders the market prices it against.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
SMCI holds a seat in the S&P 500 but no Rubin seat, and it does not yet carry a Closelooknet score. The diary has quoted it in a Nvidia ecosystem report describing it as a systems-and-integrators name built around liquid-cooled cabinets, and in a Midday 10 note tracking a broad move across servers, memory and chip equipment names.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether Super Micro keeps pace with rack-level demand from the current liquid-cooling cycle, and whether its build volumes track or lag the integrator peers it is compared against.
