Keep an Eye on Bond Yields plus 3 Stocks Worth Watching
Macro, Micro and Small Cap News | Saturday 26th September 2026
In this week's episode, we break down why rising benchmark US government bond yields are ringing alarm bells across financial markets. As bond prices fall and yields march higher, governments face escalating debt service costs—setting off a potential debt spiral that directly impacts equity valuations. We explore what happens when the Equity Risk Premium approaches zero, why pension funds might rotate out of risk assets into guaranteed yields, and how long current AI-driven earnings growth can absorb the pressure.
We also share quick boots-on-the-ground observations from recent travels across Chicago, Nashville, and Miami, followed by in-depth fundamental looks at three companies:
Funding Circle (#FCH): Why the market overreacted to CEO Lisa Jacobs’ planned handover for September 2027, the strength of their interim results, and the growth trajectory of FlexiPay and business credit cards.
Everplay (#EVPL): Exceptional H2 momentum driven by standout sales from Wardogs (3.24M units) and Hell Let Loose: Vietnam (~400k), plus the upcoming pipeline.
Fonix (#FNX): A pristine balance sheet, a near-6% dividend yield, and international expansion plays set to scale revenue over the next 3–5 years.
Plus, our regular rundown of indices, commodities, and the top three risers and fallers of the week.
