Falling Interest Rates
Government bond prices are rising, so yields are falling. Up 0.7% over the past week.
Story and price disagree
This force held over the week, but today's trading moved the other way. Watch whether the reversal continues.
What this is
Bond yields are declining as rate expectations shift lower. Rate-sensitive sectors and long-duration growth stocks benefit from falling borrowing costs.
What it moves
Housing, real estate, and long-duration growth stocks are supported.
What would break it
Inflation picking back up and keeping rates higher for longer would reverse this.
Where it shows up
Companies it reaches
These companies sit in themes this force drives. That is an exposure, not a view on any of them.
