  "account": "US stock market indices, including the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, have reached record highs, while European indices like the Stoxx Europe 600 and DAX are close to their peak levels. Despite rising bond yields, company profits are increasing, with S&P 500 companies' earnings rising 34% in the second quarter and expected to grow 27% in the third quarter. However, beneath the surface, 44% of S&P 500 stocks are down at least 20% from their 52-week highs, and seven of eleven sectors ended the third quarter with losses. The tech sector, driven by investments in AI, has buoyed the market, but experts warn that higher bond yields will eventually put pressure on stocks.",
  "summary": "US bond yields are as high as they were in 2002. The stock markets are trading close to their record highs. But this is misleading. Beneath the surface of the indexes, there is turmoil.",
