Markets have a way of keeping investors on the sidelines. There’s always a reason to wait — uncertainty around policy, volatility driven by global events, or simply the belief that better opportunities will present themselves tomorrow. Today is no different. Interest rates have moved higher in recent periods, creating both hesitation and opportunity. Many investors are choosing to remain short, waiting for clarity on the direction of inflation, central bank policy, or broader economic conditions. But history shows that waiting for certainty often comes at a cost. By the time the path of rates becomes clear, much of the opportunity to lock in higher yields has already passed. In this session, we will walk through the options, the math and weigh the outcomes.
