Rising Treasury yields threaten to stall US stock rally

MarketWatch links the risk to a market environment where stocks have notched record territory, but higher yields could disrupt the rally temporarily.

MarketWatch notes that strong U.S. earnings growth over recent quarters has helped push stocks into record territory.

The outlet warns that rising Treasury yields are now a potential headwind, even for investors who do not hold bonds.

According to MarketWatch, the impact could be temporary, but the shift in yields raises concerns that it may derail momentum in equities.
