With recent news of South Korea and Hungary hiking rates (even before this news), I am starting to more seriously consider the possibility that the *rest of the world* could lead asset tapering initiatives, ahead of the US. This would allow for Emerging Markets to stabilize, amid the DOLLAR-driven commodity boom, thereby setting the stage for the next several years of global macro / monetary & fiscal policy.
US Indices: Lot's of money still coming in via accommodative monetary policy and continued deficit spending, not to mention the potential (likely) for *more attractive* debt issuance, following the post-covid-stabilization of the "rest of the world".
Just an idea and a theory - but even looking at the Nasdaq, we have seem to have stabilized above a 12-year range; which is typically a bullish indicator.... oh one more nugget: the biggest companies in the world are American companies. So in a way, the US has the ability to control dollars through corporate channels not available to other countries.
