#Fed
The market is already pricing in a potential 25-basis-point increase in the U.S. interest rate. And if that actually happens, the impact could be much greater than many people are imagining.
A rate hike in this scenario could put pressure on U.S. Treasury bonds, pulling liquidity away from risk assets. In practice, money becomes more expensive, credit tightens, and capital tends to move toward assets considered safer. That’s exactly where the market starts to become more vulnerable to a sharp correction.
And when liquidity begins to dry up, traditional markets usually feel it first—especially the assets most sensitive to interest rates.
And we have some factors that make this outlook even more delicate.
Inflation remains above the target the Fed wants, while the U.S. government continues to spend at extremely high levels, as if it were facing a recession or even a direct war. At the same time, oil prices keep rising, adding even more pressure on inflation.
When you put all of this together, you get a scenario in which a rise in U.S. rates stops looking like just a distant possibility and becomes an increasingly concrete risk for the markets.
