Navigating the Fed's Rate Standoff: Capitalizing on Policy Uncertainty in Fixed-Income Markets
Nathaniel StoneFriday, Jun 20, 2025 12:44 am ET


Political clashes between Trump and Powell are eroding Fed independence, creating volatility in Treasuries and corporate bonds. Investors should exploit this by:
- Ultra-short T-bills: Safeguard against near-term rate cuts with minimal duration risk.
- Inverse rate futures: Profit from anticipated Fed easing post-Powell's term (ending .2026).
- TIPS: Hedge against inflation, which may persist due to tariff-driven costs and geopolitical risks.
Act now—yield curves are narrowing, and delayed Fed action could worsen debt costs. Monitor this inversion for timing. This strategy balances yield-seeking with protection against policy shifts.
