U.S. stocks closed lower Monday (Sept. 28) as the 10-year Treasury yield pushed toward a roughly two-decade high, according to closing figures carried by Reuters / Investing.com and market wraps. The Dow finished at 51,481.51 (−347.11 / −0.67%); the S&P 500 at 7,683.69 (−59.72 / −0.77%); the Nasdaq Composite at 26,820.38 (−248.34 / −0.92%).
The 10-year yield traded near ~5.23–5.24% into the close (intraday touch near ~5.27%) — among the highest prints since around 2007. The 30-year sat near ~5.55–5.56%. Crude stayed elevated after Iran/Hormuz headlines; settlement prints differed by desk (some Brent wraps near the high-$90s after an earlier push above $101; others showed higher Brent settles — attribute the oil leg carefully). Spot gold was reported sharply lower (~−3–4% area in several wraps). Nvidia had been green earlier on a large buyback authorization, but the close story was yields and oil weighing on the broader tape.

Higher real yields compress equity multiples and risk appetite; crypto often trades that same risk channel with a lag. This is a close report, not a recommendation. Not investment advice.
