And while money initially moved into stocks in the morning, capital moved out of safe-haven assets. The price of the 10-year Treasury note fell Friday, sending its yield up to 2% from a March closing low of 1.73%.

So, uh, whenever I hear about Telegram, it’s always in relation to something bad. What gives?
