Listen to our CEO and CIO, Glen Smith, share his expertise on CNBC regarding the potential interest rate outlook for 2025! 💼🔎 “So, what we are doing for our clients is, we think, because rates are going to stay at this level, you want to start looking at extending the yield curve. If you are an investor who has a portion of your investments in fixed income, you don’t want to hope that rates are going to go higher because they most likely won’t. You also don’t want to wait and let rates come down on you when you could have locked in at 10-year treasuries in the mid-4s, so you definitely want to extend that duration at this time, believing that rates next year will stay similar or come down a bit.” Watch the full video to gain knowledge about the year ahead! #gdswealthmanagement #newsinterview #cnbcnews #interestrates #investmentstrategy Nothing contained herein should not be construed as a solicitation to buy or sell any security or as an offer to provide investment advice.

Markets reacted with strong gains in small caps and banks, though volatility remains a concern. As Treasury yields rise and employment data fluctuates, clarity on the economy is key. Internationally, Europe is better prepared for gas price hikes, while U.S. tariffs in China raise concerns. Despite political shifts, fundamentals remain the long-term market driver.
