MOU-nting inflation concerns
Mark Cabana, Svia Salim, Stephen Junot, Megan Swiber
Bank of America Global Rate Strategy analysts project three additional Federal Reserve rate hikes this year, driven by sticky core inflation and geopolitical tensions that have pushed European yields to post-2008 highs amid robust demand from life insurers. While BofA forecasts a temporary inflationary spike from World Cup-related spending in June, the bank anticipates the ECB and BOE will remain responsive to oil-driven risks with the Fed shifting from a cutting bias to a hold or hike stance. Consequently, the firm advises clients to maintain an underweight position across the yield curve, particularly at the front end, to mitigate the potential for further rate increases in the coming months.

Why America is stepping away from the institutions it built | The Economist
U.S. foreign policy is undergoing a structural shift from values-based engagement to a transactional approach, driven by a bipartisan consensus that the post-World War II order has failed to deliver sufficient economic returns or strategic advantages. Former President Trump's 2015 platform catalyzed this pivot by framing the abandonment of multilateral institutions as a correction to decades of free-riding, leading to increased reliance on tariffs and coercive trade rather than traditional alliances. Experts project three potential futures for this realignment: a renegotiated U.S. hegemony, a fragmented status quo, or a chaotic descent into systemic collapse triggered by unchecked military coercion.

Post NFP Call
Ralf Preusser, Aditya Bhave, Mark Cabana, Alex Cohen
The July 2 Bureau of Labor Statistics report revealed non-farm payrolls missing consensus with significant downward revisions, while the unemployment rate dropped to 4.2% driven primarily by a decline in labor force participation rather than net job growth. This data reduced immediate expectations for a July Federal Reserve rate hike to 5 basis points and triggered a bull steepening in the yield curve, though strategists maintain that sticky inflation remains the primary catalyst for future monetary tightening. Amidst these shifts, the US economy continues to outperform G10 peers, supporting a Bank of America projection that the US dollar will strengthen through the summer despite a 0.5% post-report pullback driven by hedge fund repositioning.
