James Van Straten: Rate hike expected as market discounts recession for this year
Rate hike expected by markets amid capex

James Van Straten highlights that market expectations are currently leaning toward a Federal Reserve rate hike rather than a cut.

He suggests that a rate cut would be a surprise, given current pricing and strong capital expenditure spending, which he argues makes a recession unlikely at least for this year. Van Straten also notes that bond yields and oil prices will likely decrease when a "war deal" is secured.

Van Straten previously noted that STRC saw nearly $1.5 billion in trading volume, approaching its all-time daily peak by $97 million, in a recent market update. He has also recalled when Bitcoin was blamed for high electricity prices. In that post, he suggested investors consider positions contrary to political commentary.
