The US bond market is signaling that President Trump’s second term may be a bullish signal for the stock market. Despite recent volatility, the benchmark 10-year Treasury note has calmed down, suggesting it’s time to reassess stocks that were previously considered attractive.
A selloff in US government bonds prior to Trump’s first term led to concerns of higher yields, including a possible 5% benchmark for the 10-year Treasury note. However, the current calm in bonds indicates a more optimistic outlook for the stock market. As investors should take heed of this development, it is essential to continue monitoring market-moving headlines from Washington before making any investment decisions.
