Markets on Edge: Fed Holds, Trump Moves, Rates Shift

KP Talks Dollars and Sense

📉 The Fed held steady—and that silence? It spoke volumes. No rate cuts, no bold moves. Just a wait-and-see stance on inflation, especially from tariffs.
🇺🇸 Meanwhile, Trump didn’t stay quiet. He came back with a trade deal with the UK—$10B in Boeing orders, beef exports, and more. It gave the market some certainty… and mortgage rates felt it.
📊 The 10-year Treasury dipped from 4.35% to around 4.24%—right in that window I flagged earlier. But it bounced right back to 4.37% after the trade deal news.
🤝 Global politics, trade wars, Fed policy—it’s all connected. These shifts in money flow impact housing, mortgage rates, and your bottom line.
