The Fed's Projections & Bond Market Implications

  • Summary

  • Over the past few years, the path of interest rates has been highly unpredictable due to factors like inflation, economic growth, and the Federal Reserve's policies. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield exemplifies this volatility, having surged from 3.8% at the end of last year to a peak of 4.7% in April, before recently settling around 4.2%. These higher rates have confounded the expectations of investors and economists, creating a challenging environment for the bond market, as rising rates lead to falling bond prices.

    However, with inflation starting to show signs of improvement, many now anticipate that the Fed might begin cutting rates by the end of the year. In this episode, Brian and Ryan explore what perspectives diversified investors need to maintain balance and stability in the months ahead. Join us as we delve into the implications of these economic trends and provide insights to help you navigate this complex landscape.
