Here's an interesting take on what might happen next year: inflation could actually come in lower than most people are betting on in 2026. If that plays out, it opens the door for the Fed to be more aggressive with rate cuts than currently priced in—which would naturally push bond yields down even further.

The kicker? You'd essentially get the best of both worlds—looser monetary conditions without the inflation fears. That's what makes this scenario so compelling for markets.

Low inflation + aggressive rate cuts, sounds good but can it really be achieved... I don't think the Fed will be so gentle.

Wait, this logic seems too perfect... Will it really go this smoothly?

This scenario sounds pretty good... low inflation + aggressive rate cuts, feels like a big pie in the sky? If it really happens this way, I need to quickly adjust my portfolio.

Hmm... this logic sounds good, but will low inflation really come? I've been proven wrong enough times.

Wait a minute, this set of logic is a bit too idealistic... Can it really avoid inflation while maintaining loose monetary policy at the same time? I always feel like something's not quite right.
