The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has executed a significant bond sale and rate hike, pushing 10-year yields to 7.35% and retail inflation above 5%. This signals a tightening of global liquidity conditions, which is particularly negative for high-multiple growth stocks and emerging markets. Concurrently, UK inflation data remains sticky, limiting the Bank of England's ability to cut rates aggressively. The macro backdrop is increasingly restrictive, dampening the outlook for leveraged sectors like real estate and consumer credit.
