<h2>2018 in Review</h2>The year turned out to be a very poor one for investors in general, and for emerging-market investors in particular. Going into 2018, the outlook for the Treasury yield curve was mixed. One view was that reasonable growth, rising inflation, Fed rate hikes and a balance-sheet reduction would lead to higher long-term rates. Another was that the yield curve would continue to flatten if the Fed were to raise rates faster than expected with inflation still below the 2% target. As it turns out, both were correct, with rates increasing and the curve flattening.

Toward the end of November, bond market traders seemed to reassess the Fed’s pace of rate tightening, with signs emerging of a sputtering in global economic growth. Last month, the IMF downgraded its forecast for world growth, and recently warned that the outlook may have deteriorated.Minutes from the last FOMC meeting indicated that Fed officials discussed the modification of language on "further gradual" hikes, as well as the need for a flexible approach on rates. This approach seems realistic, given the falling oil prices and indications of a cooling in the medium-term prospects for US inflation (the core PCE deflator for October missed expectations at 1.8%).
