Small-Cap Stocks Hit Hard as Yields Surge

The Wall Street Journal reports that small-cap stocks sold off sharply as bond yields surged, with the rate-sensitive group among the hardest-hit corners of the equity market. Rising yields raise borrowing costs and weigh most on smaller companies that rely more heavily on debt financing. Investors are watching whether the yield climb continues to pressure riskier stocks.
Why now: A sharp rise in yields is rattling equity markets, with small caps bearing the brunt and investors assessing the fallout.
