U.S. interest rates are heading down ⬇️
Trump is fighting for it. Scott Bessent is fighting for it.
And now the market seems to be fighting for it too.
There’s been a certain stubbornness in the market, where Trump could jump and shout, and rates (along with the Fed) stayed put. But that seems to be changing now.
Across both short- and long-term yields, we now appear to be breaking lower technically, after moving in the same pattern for about 2.5 years.
This will most likely put further pressure on European rates, which are already lower, and therefore be good news for your wallet if you have either a variable or fixed-rate loan.
It should also ease nerves around the stock market and likely lift it again toward the end of 2025, crypto included.
You could invest in bonds, but that’s too boring for my taste (my house will have to be enough), so I’ll be watching from the sidelines with excitement 🍿.
An early Christmas present, perhaps, if it plays out that way.
Happy investing,
Martin 💸
