    Fears of an impending recession may be fading, but economists are still expecting tepid GDP growth for the year. The rhetorical tariff tug-of-war isn’t helping sentiment or certainty.

    The market narrative appears to change on a dime these days. Stocks may have staged a comeback to recoup almost all their post-“Liberation Day” losses. But the bottom line on the fixed income market hasn’t changed all that much. Bonds are continuing to sell off — sending the 30-year Treasury yield soaring above 5%. And the yield curve continues to remain steep. Investors are scrambling to sift through the noise and weather the volatility storm. And more issuers are stepping up to heed the call.
