Market Research & Articles
FEATURED MARKET DATA
Strong Bond Returns
Third quarter bond returns were the strongest since the 4th quarter of 2023. Bond yields declined during the quarter as Fedspeak leaned dovish with the Fed refocusing attention on risks to the labor market. In September, the Fed completed its pivot with a more aggressive than expected 50 basis point rate cut.
SEMI-ANNUAL MARKET OUTLOOK | SUMMER 2024
