A rebound in the 10-year Treasury yield could weigh on stocks, putting a dampener on the market's recent rally, according to veteran trader Art Cashin. I would watch that yield on the 10-year. … We may get another retest of the higher level in yields, while all that Fed jabber is going on," he added. If the yield on the 10-year Treasury note begins to move above 4.55%, Cashin said that could put "mild pressure" on the equity markets. You can see that the tone of many of the commentators who were getting more and more bearish are now stepping back from that," Cashin said.

These forms of deep brain stimulation require a surgical procedure during which electrodes — which generate electrical impulses to control any abnormal brain activity — are implanted into certain areas of the brain. With enough advancement in the field, doctors expect brain stimulation techniques for both severe disorders and health-and-wellness purposes will ultimately become noninvasive. Three major players There are only three companies with FDA-approved deep brain stimulation, or DBS, treatments: Medtronic , Abbott Laboratories and Boston Scientific . The spinal cord stimulation, or SCS, business is a hotbed of innovation right now, deep brain stimulation also is a key area." There is still plenty of doubt, however, about the efficacy of at-home brain stimulation devices, which offer a less direct approach to brain stimulation and don't always require FDA oversight.

But both are losing ground with Chinese nationals as safety concerns rise among younger travelers. Both countries were the top choices for Chinese holidaymakers earlier this year but fell in the third quarter — Thailand to No. 8 — according to the marketing company China Trading Desk, which gauges Chinese travel sentiment on a quarterly basis. Both countries now lag behind South Korea, Malaysia and Australia in terms of Chinese travelers' next vacation destinations, with Singapore — deemed one of the safest places for travelers in 2023 — rising to the top spot. The World Health Organization and other safety groups have said seafood from Japan is safe to eat, but fears among Chinese travelers have "turned one of their most popular destinations into one of their least popular," Bhatt said.

"We think the meeting shows the intention from both sides to restore bilateral relations. This could help reduce near-term risk of escalatory confrontation," Morgan Stanley analyst Robin Xing wrote in a Thursday note. This also indicates a continued reduction in direct foreign investment and technology spillover to China, Xing said, which could weigh on China's long-term growth outlook. Moving forward, the analyst believes that further stimulus and reforms in China are needed to help stabilize market confidence in the country. According to Piper Sandler analyst Andy Laperriere, the economic and geopolitical relationships between the U.S. and China will remain locked in competition.

Goldman Sachs thinks Maxeon Solar Technologies will see eye-popping gains despite the company's recent earnings disappointment. Analyst Brian Lee maintained his buy rating on the Singapore-based solar panel maker. He did lower his 12-month price target on the stock by $3 to $18, but that still implies shares can go up 195% from Wednesday's close. Shares of the solar company plunged 14% on Thursday, reaching a 52-week low, after Maxeon reported third-quarter results that missed analysts' expectations by a wide margin. But a positive catalyst for the stock going forward, Lee noted, is that Maxeon announced a settlement on Wednesday with residential solar technology provider SunPower .

Last month, bond yields made a comeback and the 10-year Treasury note hit roughly 5%, the highest since 2007. On the other end, bond risk comes from the borrower's ability to pay back their obligation. For investors who want higher income, Bory recommends considering a mutual fund or a commingled fund that provides that diversification. Popular examples of corporate bond funds include the MainStay MacKay High Yield Corporate Bond Fund (MHCAX), Goldman Sachs High Yield Fund (GSHIX), and High Yield Spectrum Fund (PHSIX). Below is a list of Morningstar analysts' favorite high-yield bond funds that have the highest "Gold Medalist" rating.
