WS #14712
Federal Reserve officials, including Anna Paulson and Jeff Hammack, have explicitly signaled that further interest rate hikes may be necessary to lower inflation, confirming a hawkish pivot. This stance has driven 10-year Treasury yields to multi-decade highs, creating a 'TINA' (There Is No Alternative) era reversal that is pressuring high-multiple growth stocks and cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin has slipped below $84,000 as yields spike, though whale accumulation suggests institutional conviction remains despite the headwind.
