Transition Period in Markets: Fed Policy and Growth Data Impacting Rates
The recent transition in the stock and bond markets has been influenced by changes in Federal Reserve policy and strong growth data. Initially, there was an overestimation of expected Fed cuts which caused a shift in market sentiment. Subsequent stronger growth news, including positive job reports and GDP growth, led to a more hawkish policy stance from the Federal Committee members. As a result, five-year rates have increased significantly. Although market sensitivity to January data may have led to some overreactions, rates are expected to adjust as Fed cuts become more imminent towards mid-year.
