TAG Industrial Watch: December 21, 2024
Once again the Federal Reserve cut interest rates on bank-to-bank loans, and once again (as TAG predicted), rates on the closely-watched 10-year Treasury defied expectations and ascended higher. With another 25 basis-point cut, the Fed’s target rate is now 100 basis points lower since the start of the recent rate cut cycle in September. However, the 10-year Treasury rate is now closing in on 4.6%, nearly 90 basis points higher since the Fed began cutting rates (CNBC). Market experts are now starting to understand what we have been informing our clients, the government’s budget deficits are at the center of rising interest rates and high inflation. Given that Trump is promising tax cuts and now calling for the elimination of the debt ceiling (NBC News), budget deficits are more than likely to increase, putting more upward pressure on interest rates and inflation. Due to America’s $61.5 trillion in total debt – public and private (FRED), the economy may be quickly approaching a point in the bond market that could send interest rates even higher and reduce lending. This is why TAG continues to encourage its clients to take advantage of the current lending environment to secure small and specialized industrial properties that should outperform the overall market in the years to come.
