FYI: Is the search for yield over? For years after the financial crisis, investors struggled to generate income as central banks around the world cut interest rates to nothing and unleashed unprecedented amounts of monetary stimulus.
More recently, that paradigm has begun to reverse. In the U.S., the Fed is consistently hiking rates, while its counterparts in Europe and Asia are itching to join it.
The benchmark federal funds rate is nearly 2% after hovering near zero three years ago. Meanwhile, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield more than doubled from 1.32% at its low point in 2016 to last trade at 2.85%.
