This is one reason why it’s said that monetary policy is a blunt tool — it roughly does the job when it comes to avoiding deeper economic recessions and depressions, but the price is often higher asset prices.</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Expect less of a tailwind for risk assets, upward pressure on borrowing costs, and likely more volatile markets going forward.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>The global policy pivot to rate hikes (likely to be soon joined by Canada and the U.K.) means investors can expect incrementally less of a tailwind for risk assets, upward pressure on borrowing costs, and likely more volatile markets going forward.</p>\n<p>Indeed, mapping out the previous paths in policy, the chart below shows how shifts from easing to tightening at best means a leveling-out or regime shift in the market; e.g. from a near vertical line to more chopping and ranging. At worst, if tight enough for long enough, this policy change can trigger an outright shift from bull market to bear market.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d54c8bc1e0bc437bcfc2ce03e8655e14\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"489\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>You might be thinking, what do all these random small, emerging-market central banks hiking interest rates have to do with the S&P500? You’ve probably heard the saying that when the Fed sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold, but in this sense, given the Fed is still likely to be dragging its feet on policy for some time, it’s almost more that the rest of the world catches a cold and U.S. equities sneeze.</p>\n<p>You only need to go back to 2015-16 where much of the volatility in U.S. markets back then was driven or triggered by issues in China and emerging markets, or in the post-financial crisis period when the eurozone debt crisis was raging and weighing on global investor sentiment.</p>\n<p>Beyond regional crises — which can be precipitated by premature stimulus removal — the bigger issue is the common themes motivating monetary policy.</p>\n<p>While each central bank has its own set of circumstances, the common theme is a reaction to higher inflation, stronger growth and a desire to avoid overcooking markets.
