Singapore — Stocks headed for a weekly loss on Friday as the prospect of aggressive global rate hikes finally began to rattle investors, while bonds fell and the dollar looked set for its best week in a month.
Federal Reserve policymakers are ready to start cutting the central bank’s asset holdings from May and are prepared to move rates higher 50-basis-points at a time to curb inflation, meeting minutes and remarks from officials showed this week. “The last two decades brought low inflation and a relatively peaceful world. Going forward geopolitical conflicts may become more and more volatile and have more of an impact on the whole world’s economy.”
Elsewhere long-end Treasuries have borne the brunt of this week’s selling in haemorrhaging bond markets as traders see it hit hardest by the Fed cutting bond holdings.
