Equity Market Overview
Bond Market Overview
Early 2005 brought a drop in the equity markets, caused by concerns over
aggressive Federal Reserve tightening in the face of decelerating economic
and profit growth. While January jobs figures were disappointing, results from
the corporate earnings season for the fourth quarter of 2004 were better than
expected. As anticipated, the Fed raised its target for the federal funds rate
by 25 basis points to 2.50% on February 1, and we expect the solid economy
and continued Fed tightening to eventually push longer-term rates moderately
higher. Looking forward, equities may encounter occasional difficulty as
investors fret over the implications of further interest rate increases. But, we
believe that the economy will move from recovery to non-inflationary
expansion, and expect stocks to be able to weather investors’ jitters.
Our bond market forecast for 2005 was for flat-to-low single-digit returns for
bonds in the face of continued Federal Reserve interest rate tightening.
February saw bond yields reaching new multi-month lows, with the yield on
10-year U.S. Treasury notes dropping to 3.98% before rebounding to 4.08%
after strong economic reports, and finally hovering near 4.25% near
month-end. The Fed, which had stepped up anti-inflation rhetoric, apparently
supporting both bond prices and the value of the dollar, raised the federal
funds target rate to 2.50% as anticipated on February 1. We believe the Fed
will keep tightening interest rates, for the time being, at the “measured pace” it
has followed during the past half year. This continued tightening may eventually
push longer term rates higher, as long as the economy remains solid. But,
absent bad news on inflation or a renewed steep drop-off in the value of the
U.S. dollar, a sharp rise in long-term interest rates does not appear imminent.
