The recent upward momentum in U.S. stock markets is facing a new challenge due to an increase in Treasury yields. This development comes as the Federal Reserve indicates a possibility of fewer interest rate cuts in 2025. The rise in yields could pose a significant obstacle for equities, as higher yields often lead to increased borrowing costs and can make stocks less attractive compared to bonds. This shift in the Fed's stance suggests a more cautious approach to monetary policy in the coming years, potentially impacting investor sentiment and market dynamics.
