"When interest rates are higher, investors can earn more from relatively safe investments like government bonds. At 4.5-5.0%, bonds become real competition for stocks."

However, there is a price you pay for safety. I remember at the beginning of 2023, people were saying there was no point of investing in risk assets given that they could get 5% risk free. Back then, everyone was predicting a recession based on the unprecedented speed of rate hikes.

That year, the S&P went up 24%. Man plans, God laughs.
