14 Sep The Fed looks like it’s going to hike – implications for investors & Australia
Key Points:
- The Fed is likely to start raising interest rates to combat sticky inflation and affirm its credibility.
- First Fed rate hikes in a tightening cycle don’t normally signal the end of the bull market in shares but are consistent with volatility and the risk of a correction.
- A Fed hike is unlikely to impact the RBA which started hiking before the Fed & was already likely to hike again this mth.
