How it trades on rate days

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

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year −0.21 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Wex Inc moved −0.21% on average · correlation −0.05 · higher than 5% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months −0.29 about the same as over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days +1.58% 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 +0.48% 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 — Wex Inc

WEX 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
Wex runs a payments platform built around three segments: fleet cards and transaction processing for commercial vehicles, corporate payment tools such as embedded payments and accounts-payable automation, and software for health benefits including HSAs and COBRA administration. It sells to businesses, government fleets, travel and insurance firms, and benefit administrators. It is headquartered in Portland, Maine, and trades as a payments and software company rather than a hardware or chip name.
Where it sits in the stack
Wex carries no seat in Rubin, our AI build-out index, so it sits instead in the software and payments sleeve of our wider universe, a group of infrastructure firms that process transactions rather than build or test compute hardware. It is a constituent of no build-out layer we track, and its relevance to the diary is as a payments-software watch rather than an AI supply-chain name.
Who it is priced against
There is no peer group set for Wex in our records; the comparison the market draws most often is with Corpay, the other large fleet-card and corporate-payments operator.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Wex sits in the Russell 1000, a broad large-cap index, but has no Rubin or Halo seat and no Closelooknet score yet, so the diary has not built a scoring view of it. It has not been quoted in any edition so far.
What the diary watches
Whether growth in the corporate-payments and benefits segments offsets any softness in fleet-card volumes, since that mix shift is what would change how the diary reads the business.
