The ECB cut rates by 25bp as widely anticipated, but a slightly hawkish tilt bear flattened the EUR curve, which in our view remains priced aggressively. In the US, as the markets head towards the Fed's first rate cut, the probability of a larger cut rose slightly on Thursday.

The first cut is the deepest — so they say. As with all complicated relationships, this mantra may certainly ring true for the Federal Reserve and the markets — at least from a psychological standpoint.

Positioning Ahead of the Fed: ETFs for a Lower Rate Era

SPTL has declined by nearly 40% due to rising treasury yields and inflation. SPTL's sensitivity to rate changes caused a 41% decline, but easing inflation and weakening economy may lead to a rebound. The lower rate environment and potential economic recession make it a good time to own SPTL, with potential price returns of over 20%.

It generally takes a few years for changes in Federal Reserve rates to fully impact bond fund dividends. Bond funds are still benefitting from prior rate hikes. Perhaps by enough to cancel out any future rate cuts. By my estimations, and under current Fed guidance, most bond funds would only start to see declining dividends in 2025, at the earliest.

Last week's spike in Treasury yields has further dragged on the SPDR Portfolio Long Term Treasury ETF's performance. With the higher yields coming on the heels of a rating downgrade and an accelerated issuance outlook, the move seems justified. As appealing as SPTL's higher yields might seem, the prospect of more cheapening pressure means investors might be better off sitting this one out.
