Focus Asset Management’s Q3 2026 analysis, published October 14, warned that rising yields and concentrated equity gains masked broader market fragility.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield exceeded 5.3% in September, its highest since 2007, raising borrowing costs and pressure on equity valuations.
The S&P 500 Index gained 2.38% in the quarter; the S&P/TSX Composite Index rose approximately 1.62%.
Five technology companies accounted for roughly 93% of S&P 500 Index gains since late July, underscoring the market’s narrow leadership.
Nearly 80% of S&P 500 stocks declined in September; more than 40% of constituents were over 20% below their 52-week highs.
