This week's most-read pieces on Abnormal Returns:
• Bond bear market deep dive
• Cybertruck sales falling short of expectations
• Private equity's growing backlog problem
Three very different stories, one common thread: when reality doesn't match the narrative, markets have to adjust. The bond piece is particularly timely given how many investors still haven't fully priced in higher-for-longer rates. PE's backlog issue is the quiet story nobody wants to talk about — distributions have dried up, and LPs are getting restless.
Cybertruck? That's just a reminder that hype doesn't pay the bills. Pre-orders mean nothing if they don't convert to actual deliveries and sustained demand.
Worth reading all three if you want to understand where the pressure points are right now.
