Places like the UK, certainly across Europe, even places like Australia \u2014 we&#8217;ve seen a material run-up in central bank tightening expectations,&#8221; he told CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;ETF Edge&#8221; this week. &#8220;Now, some of that&#8217;s been delivered on already. The ECB raised rates just a few weeks ago. The expectation is they will do a bit more. But unless the Fed is going to validate those moves, they&#8217;re going to have to move at a slower pace than perhaps what&#8217;s priced in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bory works as chief investment strategist in fixed income at Allspring \u2014 an asset management firm primarily focused on fixed income, money markets, and stocks. According to Allspring&#8217;s website, clients range from consultants and financial advisors to corporations and financial institutions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Short to intermediate duration global government developed market bonds [are] not a bad spot to be, especially for those central banks that are really tethered to inflation,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If they&#8217;re going to move aggressively, that will help bond investors. And so, adding that international duration \u2026 mixing it with some U.S. duration. Now we&#8217;re playing different rate cycles, and that works really, really nicely.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Fed hasn&#8217;t hiked rates in the U.S. since July 2023. The CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch gauge as of late Friday shows a 78% chance the Fed will hike rates in December. The odds dipped to 68% in January 2027.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"InlineImage-imageEmbed InlineImage-inlineInfographic\" id=\"ArticleBody-InlineImage-108327580\" data-test=\"InlineImage\">\n<div class=\"InlineImage-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"InlineImage-imagePlaceholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:28.08988764044944%\">\n<div><button class=\"InlineImage-closeEnlargedImage\"><svg width=\"20\" height=\"20\" viewbox=\"0 0 20 20\" fill=\"#002F6C\" aria-labelledby=\"title desc\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\" data-analytic-id=\"expand-icon\" class=\"InlineImage-background\"><title>Zoom In Icon<\/title><desc>Arrows pointing outwards<\/desc><circle cx=\"10\" cy=\"10\" r=\"10\" fill=\"white\" stroke=\"#002F6C\"\/><path d=\"M9.20185 10.7982C8.96049 10.5568 8.57037 10.5568 8.32901 10.7982L5.67901 13.4482V11.2346C5.67901 10.8938 5.40308 10.6173 5.06173 10.6173C4.72037 10.6173 4.44444 10.8938 4.44444 11.2346V14.9383C4.44444 15.279 4.72037 15.5556 5.06173 15.5556H8.76543C9.10679 15.5556 9.38271 15.279 9.38271 14.9383C9.38271 14.5975 9.10679 14.321 8.76543 14.321H6.55185L9.20185 11.671C9.44321 11.4296 9.44321 11.0395 9.20185 10.7982ZM14.9383 4.44446H11.2346C10.8932 4.44446 10.6173 4.721 10.6173 5.06174C10.6173 5.40248 10.8932 5.67903 11.2346 5.67903H13.4481L10.7981 8.32903C10.5568 8.57038 10.5568 8.96051 10.7981 9.20187C10.9185 9.32224 11.0765 9.38273 11.2346 9.38273C11.3926 9.38273 11.5506 9.32224 11.671 9.20187L14.321 6.55187V8.76545C14.321 9.10619 14.5969 9.38273 14.9383 9.38273C15.2796 9.38273 15.5556 9.10619 15.5556 8.76545V5.06174C15.5556 4.721 15.2796 4.44446 14.9383 4.44446Z\"\/><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Meanwhile, Bory highlights the European Central Bank&#8217;s move earlier this month.
