The TS Lombard team argues that a resilient US economy and labour market reacceleration will force the Fed to hike rates significantly more than the market expects. Consequently, they anticipate a flatter yield curve and sustained US dollar strength.
Key Takeaways
- 1.The Fed is expected to hike once in 2026 and on a quarterly schedule in 2027, leading to a much higher terminal rate than market expectations.
- 2.US domestic inflation is being driven by a reaccelerating labour market and supply constraints, rather than just energy shocks.
- 3.Expect a flatter yield curve and sustained USD upside, though the rally's intensity may be capped by geopolitical instability and global reflation.
