Global markets are still facing headwinds, with the latest Fed minutes revealing that the decision to pause the 10-month consecutive rate hike was vigorously debated.

Following the hawkish sentiment of the Fed, interest rate futures have risen significantly this week, now pricing in a 94% chance of a 25 bps rate hike in July and a 10% chance of three more hikes this year.

Job Markets are Still Hot

Interestingly, the stock market has managed to perform well despite the uncertainty. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq have both recorded extremely positive gains year-to-date, with the former up 14% and the latter impressively gaining 30.8%.
