TUESDAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

Global markets have been focused of late on assessing the potential speed and trajectory at which the Fed will move to hike interest rates and tighten its ultra-loose pandemic-era monetary policy. The central bank’s increasingly hawkish tone has led to a rise in bond yields, which spiked again on Tuesday and roiled risk assets.
