📈 U.S. Manufacturing Sector Resurges; Yield Climb

Following a prolonged period of downturn, the American manufacturing landscape is witnessing a significant revival.

The Institute for Supply Management's recent report indicates that March marked the end of a 16-month contraction, showcasing the first expansion in manufacturing activity since September 2022. Additionally, an S&P Global survey highlights a surge in factory output growth to its highest in nearly two years.

Impact on the Markets 💹
This positive turn in manufacturing data has stirred the markets, leading to a pronounced sell-off in bonds at the start of the week. Consequently, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note saw an increase of 0.11 percentage points, reflecting investor reactions to the sector's recovery and its potential implications on the broader economy.

SPAR Group [SGRP] $1.35 (+39.2%)

Eiger BioPharm [EIGR] $1.39 (70.2%)

GCT Semiconductor [GCTS] $18.09 (45.2%)
