Economic data fluctuations have affected market sentiment, leading to short-term stagnation in risk bonds. Statistics up to last week ending June 26 revealed a net inflow of $1.84 billion in investment-grade bonds, a momentum growth to $790 million in emerging market debt, and a continuous outflow of $360 million in non-investment-grade bonds. With the Fed maintaining high rates and economic data slowing in the US, there's uncertainty despite the cooling economy. As Fed officials downplay rate cut expectations, the bond market remains stable, albeit with policy uncertainties. Multiple factors suggest both positive and negative dynamics for the US economy, impacting investment strategies across various bond categories.
