Topline

In an effort to combat a decades-high surge in inflation, the Federal Reserve will move to raise interest rates “soon,” officials said at the end of a two-day policy meeting Wednesday—a largely expected move seeking to temper concerns about more hawkish policy amid a stock-market rout fueled by the central bank’s reversal of pandemic-era stimulus measures.

“While higher interest rates increase borrowing costs for all businesses, they also make firms’ projected profits worth less in investors’ valuation models,” explains Nigel Green, the CEO of $12 billion wealth advisory DeVere Group. “This is exacerbated for tech and other growth stocks whose peak earnings are not expected for years to come.”

The S&P is on track for its worst start to a year in history after stocks plunged this month when the Fed revealed it could move more aggressively to remove pandemic-era stimulus measures. “Stocks have been under pressure as many investors began to fear a trading life without a Fed safety net,” notes Oanda analyst Edward Moya. Though Fed officials project only three interest rate hikes this year, Goldman Sachs chief economist Jan Hatzius expects the central bank will actually hike interest rates four—or even five—times this year given the Fed’s “greater sense of urgency” around inflation in recent months. The S&P and Nasdaq are down about 8% and 13%, respectively, so far this month.

As stocks struggle in anticipation of the Fed’s looming interest rate hikes, the market’s reaction will govern how less-accommodating policy in the United States spills over to other countries, and particularly emerging markets, the International Monetary Fund wrote in a Tuesday report. “Any miscommunication or misunderstanding of [the Fed’s] changes may provoke a flight to safety, raising spreads for riskier borrowers and putting undue pressure on emerging market currencies, firms and fiscal positions,” researchers wrote—citing the Fed’s removal of pandemic-era as a primary concern both domestically and worldwide. As a result, the IMF now expects U.S. gross domestic product will grow only 4% in 2022, down from 5.2% it previously projected and 5.6% in 2021.
