How it trades on rate days

How NTES has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.08 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), NetEase Inc moved 0.08% on average · correlation 0.02 · higher than 13% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.19 about the same as over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.26% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +0.46% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.
