Yesterday, the market was relatively calm. When asked by the media why the proposal released by the White House on Monday forecasts interest rates for the coming years that are significantly higher than a year ago, U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen said that this reflects the current market reality, stating that it is “unlikely” for interest rates to return to their pre-pandemic lows. She also pointed out the difficult path to normalizing inflation. U.S. Treasury yields edged higher, with the two-year and ten-year yields at 4.630% and 4.196%, respectively. The major stock indices diverged, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average slightly up by 0.1%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite fell by 0.19% and 0.54%, respectively.
