The recent U.S. election results, with Trump retaining power, present a beneficial scenario for retirees and savers, as 10-year Treasury yields have surged to significant levels not seen since before the pandemic. Interest rates on Treasury bonds and inflation-protected securities are rising, providing safer, low-risk savings options. However, potential increases in government borrowing and inflation could impact these rates, creating a complex economic landscape for investors. While savers may find attractive returns, current bondholders could face losses as rising interest rates correlate with falling bond prices.
