Show Notes
The ten-year Treasury yield surged to 4.4%, causing market turmoil as it influences mortgages, loans, and stock prices. The Federal Reserves aggressive rate hikes from early 2022 to mid-2023, increasing from near zero to 5.25% to 5.5%, led to this situation. Mortgage rates now exceed 7% for a thirty-year fixed, doubling from pandemic lows, impacting home sales and prices. Despite historical stock market performance amid rate hikes and crashes, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East pose additional risks. Long-term investors should focus on company earnings growth, diversify, shorten bond durations if necessary, and maintain patience for steady wealth accumulation.
