Summary The stock market has already endured a major correction over the past 12 months and could be headed back to pre-pandemic levels. The real estate market has been suddenly frozen by the rapid pace of the Fed's interest rate hikes. Home prices are now starting to drop and...
Summary With policy rates now meaningfully above neutral, the first phase of the tightening process is finished—and apparently successful. With the Fed’s credibility intact, it can move to a new phase: rolling out more rate hikes but at a slower pace. We expect t...

Summary With a real yield to maturity of almost 2%, holders of the TIP ETF will likely handsomely outperform inflation over the coming years. The TIP's relatively low duration suggests future returns are likely to be particularly impressive in risk-adjusted terms when compared to ...
Summary Good, but not as well as hoped. Inflation-hedge ETFs have generally been successful in minimizing losses during the current inflationary environment, less so at generating positive returns. An overview of some of these funds and their performance follows. A...
