Treasury publishes one official yield reading a day, after the session; Blockhaven does not report an intraday yield, so rates are not described here.

What remains for the rest of the session.

1. After the close: Cadence Design, Nucor, Public Storage, and The Hartford Insurance Group are listed to report: Results after the close reach the market after the regular session, so they bear on the next open; timing is a calendar listing.

• The session is not over: a midday reading can change by the close, and nothing here is a forecast of it.
• Moves with no verified catalyst are reported, not explained.
• Blockhaven's Macro read is computed once a day and is not recomputed intraday, so it is not used here.
