Higher Interest Rates & Where To Invest

US 10-Year Treasury Yield

Until recently, the US economy has been pushing forward in a steady-as-you-go manner. That was disrupted with what could be termed: ‘Realization Day’, that there actually are consequences to actions.

The United States has all the necessary tools & resources to propel the economy forward while also making necessary moderations to balance imbalances and continue growth. But, if you interrupt the foundation of the economy, there will be consequences.

The US stock market has once again turned ‘green’ for the year. There was a massive shift. Mr Market made certain to say what he felt about the policy shifts. Then, there was a massive backpedaling when Mr. Market informed policymakers that the massive shifts would have massive implications.

Now, we ask what is next for the economy:

• What are the new implications within the economy?;

• What moves will occur in the various components of the financial system?; and,

• How does one profit during this new transformation, albeit toned down considerably?

Shifting policies requires shifting market approaches.
