Deep dives

Investors' response to rising interest rates

Contrary to popular belief, rising interest rates have not historically had a negative impact on the stock market. In fact, the S&P 500 has averaged a rolling one-year performance of 13.6% during periods of rising rates, compared to 6.5% during periods of falling rates. This suggests that higher interest rates can coincide with a stronger economy and be favorable for stocks. Additionally, there have been multiple periods throughout history when interest rates have risen, indicating that the market can perform well even in rising rate environments.
