Oil-driven inflation has sent bond yields to multi-decade highs. For long-term investors, however, the turbulence could present an opportune moment to lock in extra income and capture the next phase of growth.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What Happened<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The inflation threat is back. Consumers around the world are starting to feel the effects of months of disruption in the Strait of Hormuz \u2014 the chokepoint for roughly 20% of global oil and gas supply \u2013 as the Iran War drags on. April US headline CPI came in at 3.8% year-on-year, the highest since May 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The impact on financial markets is most notable in interest rates. Markets have aggressively repriced their expectations of US interest rates \u2013 from betting on two cuts in 2026 at the start of the year, to coming close now to pricing in one hike by January 2027. Last week, the correction pushed US 10-year Treasury yields to 4.6% and 30-year yields above 5%, to levels not seen since the Global Financial Crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, the stock market is looking past these risks to notch record highs. Earnings have been exceptional. Nvidia just delivered another blockbuster quarter. Bond and equity markets are sending mixed messages. Both extremes can\u2019t hold. Something has to give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Why It Matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Near-term, we expect more volatility. Historically, bond investors tend to be optimistic before 10-year yields cross 4.5%, which provides a comfortable income cushion above the average level of yields since 1990. Once that barrier is crossed, however, investors start to wonder if the risk is worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A rapid run-up in interest rates is also bad for equities and the economy. When borrowing costs exceed the economy\u2019s long-run growth rate \u2013 as they do now \u2013 it\u2019s a reliable sign that monetary policy is restrictive, and that\u2019s historically been a headwind for equities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crucially, the near-term trajectory is almost entirely hostage to geopolitics. Each day without a US-Iran agreement gives the Treasury market impetus to push yields higher still.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Where Markets Could Be Wrong<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While markets are bracing for a hike, the bar for it is high \u2013 much higher than a cut. The Federal Reserve has been data-driven and deliberate in its decision-making, not reacting to short-term market swings or news headlines. And when you strip energy out of the inflation numbers, US \u201ccore\u201d inflation (ex-food and energy) through March has actually been moderating. That means, unless inflation returns to 2022 levels of ~7%, it\u2019s unlikely that policymakers will rush to tighten. Disinflationary forces, from shelter to productivity gains, remain prevalent in the US economy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another difference is that borrowers\u2019 fundamentals continue to be strong. Credit spreads, the additional borrowing cost for companies above the key interest rates (e.g. government bonds), are tight right now. Global bonds fell only 1% during the \u201ccorrection\u201d in the first half of May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What It Means for You<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

INCOME<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Income investors should seize this window of opportunity and lock in these yields while they can<\/strong>. Our Income+ portfolios (Pure, Enhance and Max) <\/strong>are delivering 6%-10% payouts. Investors would be buying these yields at a lower cost. Higher yields provide a buffer that often supports total returns, paying investors steady, attractive income to wait for the turn in interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

EQUITY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In equities, we\u2019ve just witnessed the best US earnings season since 2021. Fundamentals are strong, with over 84% of companies beating analyst estimates, according to FactSet calculations. UBS research notes that it takes more than one hike historically to derail the stock market\u2019s rally. Stocks could also find renewed strength if central banks shift their focus from worrying about near-term inflation to shoring up long-term economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any recovery in the stock market is unlikely to be even, however. Investors have been getting selective this year \u2013 favouring industries benefitting from AI, countries with energy security, and companies with stronger fundamentals. They\u2019re also less forgiving as the market gets increasingly expensive (Nvidia fell after beating estimates).With most DIY investors still concentrated in a handful of AI winners, this is a real risk. Selection and diversification are key<\/strong>. Both are on offer in our Core Portfolios and Thematic Portfolios, where you can get 100% exposure to equities, or a balanced approach with a mix of equities, bonds and gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
