It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Traders expect interest rates are about near their peak. But being near the end may not mean the end. While the Federal Reserve has hinted at a further quarter-point rate hike this year, possibly at its next meeting, the steepening yield curve hints that higher rates may last for some time. For large parts of the economy, that could be a problem. For instance, commercial real estate relies on refinancing properties every few years. Today, that would mean moving off of ultra-low rates and onto higher ones. And the housing market has locked up, with existing homeowners unwilling to move and get out of a 3 percent mortgage when they would then have to pay over 7 percent. The higher for longer move could mean some more trouble with the banking sector, like we saw in the spring. Or more indebted companies like trucking firm Yellow going bankrupt. That's a sign for investors to be cautious, and focus on quality over making the biggest return possible right now. And it's also a sign that investors may want to start investing more in high-yielding fixed-income in the months ahead. Now here's the rest of the news: Sponsored Content A.I.
