“The notion that rising interest rates will kill equity market gains, particularly in the U.S. … or choke off a real estate recovery … or kill the gold market for good — is a myth. Period.  It might be true if interest rates were at record highs and well above the rate of inflation. But they are not. Interest rates are coming off historic record lows in many parts of the world, and they are far below the rate of inflation.  That’s important to understand. As rates rise from historic levels — whether or not the Federal Reserve does any further tapering of its bond purchases — many investors will run for cover. But the only market rising interest rates will truly hurt is the value of sovereign bonds.”
