Long Treasury yields surge—April 14, 2025
The FS Investments Market Minute for April 14, 2025, recaps a volatile week in equity markets, with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ experiencing significant fluctuations due to trade policy uncertainties and macroeconomic concerns. Despite early-week declines, a historic rally occurred mid-week as tariffs were postponed, resulting in notable gains. Fixed income markets saw the yield curve steepen sharply amid intense volatility, while in commodities, crude prices remained stable but gold prices hit a record high due to geopolitical uncertainties. The economic overview highlighted resilient labor markets but indicated declining consumer sentiment and stagnant inflation data.
