UBS Warns of Potential 6.5% Fed Rate Hike Amid Enduring Inflation UBS Group AG strategists suggest there is a growing risk that the Federal Reserve may increase interest rates to as high as 6.5% next year, due to persistent strong U.S. economic growth and sticky inflation. Initially predicting two rate cuts this year, UBS now considers a scenario where inflation does not meet the Fed’s target, potentially leading to resumed rate hikes. This shift could trigger a significant selloff in both the bond and stock markets. Recent U.S. data indicating economic resilience has led markets to adjust expectations, reducing bets on policy easing and preparing for the possibility of increased rates if inflation remains above 2.5%. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Argentina's $5 Billion Gold Gambit: Reserves Moved for Potential Collateral READ MORE Investor Alert: Double Top Pattern & The Looming Financial Crisis READ MORE Yellen Says She Regrets Saying Inflation Was ‘Transitory’ READ MORE Governor Waller Opens Conference on U.S. Dollar's Global Role READ MORE China's Weak Recovery Dampens Global Corporate Growth Prospects READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
