Infrastructure Capital Advisors is bullish on U.S. 10-year Treasury bonds, citing expectations that the Federal Reserve will implement just one more interest rate hike. The firm’s CEO and portfolio manager stated in a report that a single rate hike aligns with the Fed’s "dot plot"—its policymakers’ interest rate projections—and falls short of the market’s current pricing expectations. He noted: "U.S. 10-year Treasury yields typically run 100 basis points above the Fed’s federal funds rate terminal level. As such, we anticipate weak housing data and soft core CPI figures will push the Fed to pause its rate hikes, leading U.S. 10-year Treasury yields to stabilize around 5%."

According to Fortune, NVIDIA’s global employee turnover rate is just 3.7%, far lower than the tech industry average of 21.9%. Febe Punsalan, NVIDIA’s head of human resources, stated that the company has long adhered to a "mission-first" culture, adopted flat management, and does not have a traditional organizational chart—key project leads may even report directly to CEO Jensen Huang, who currently has 36 direct reports. NVIDIA also continuously adjusts its welfare policies based on employee feedback. The company offers an extra two "Free Days" per quarter for all global staff, during which the entire company shuts down, and employees do not need to handle work or emails. Additionally, it maintains a hybrid work system, and provides maternity leave, paternity leave, student loan repayment support, reimbursement for IVF and surrogacy costs, as well as support programs for neurodivergent employees and their children. The report added that NVIDIA employees can purchase company stock at a 15% discount to the market price using their salaries, a perk that has made some staff millionaires. However, employees also noted that the company has high work intensity and a "pressure cooker" work environment. Punsalan acknowledged NVIDIA’s work is challenging, but said this high-intensity work is recognized by employees due to its sense of meaning and mission.
