From Dr. Steve Sjuggerud, Editor, True Wealth Systems:
The Federal Reserve is promising us that it will hike interest rates this year… possibly as soon as next month.
The question is… how bad will a rate hike be for your investments?
The short answer is, you don’t have anything to worry about. The longer answer is, we have an opportunity here.
Let me explain…
Most people assume that the Fed raising interest rates is bad for things like stock prices and house prices. You can see why people would think that… Higher borrowing costs would cut into your profits.
That line of thinking makes sense. But the truth is different from what people assume…
Based on history, asset prices (like stocks and real estate) have actually outperformed when the Fed is raising interest rates. I showed the shocking numbers here in DailyWealth not too long ago.
So why would asset prices go against the conventional wisdom…
