Q3 2023 in Perspective | Part One: Interest Rates Reach 22-Year High

<p>Markets were off to one of the best start in decades during the first half of 2023—then came the third quarter. The Federal Reserve resumed increasing rates, bringing them to a 22-year high at the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting at the end of July. This led to ongoing elevated interest rates through August, pushing bond yields higher and challenging lofty equity valuations. In this episode, Casey Dylan, CIMA®, Investment Communications Strategist (Consultant), and Tom Romano our Head of Strategic Relationships & Product Development, will provide timely insights, and analysis, on market activity from around the world this financial quarter. We will also discuss what this could mean for long-term term investors.</p> <p>If you have any questions or would like more information, reach out to us at <a title="Contact Us" href= "https://symmetrypartners.com/contact-us/">https://symmetrypartners.com/contact-us/</a></p> <p>You can also find us on <a title="LinkedIn" href= "https://www.linkedin.com/company/symmetry-partners/posts/?feedView=all&viewAsMember=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LinkedIn</a>, <a title= "Facebook" href= "https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063458915416" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Facebook</a>, <a title="YouTube" href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaMja9kdnpbMsBr3SBcCmKw" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">YouTube</a>, and <a title="Instagram" href= "https://www.instagram.com/symmetrypartners/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Instagram</a>.
