An environment featuring higher-for-longer global interest rates is particularly inhospitable to alternative assets. Their net present value is lower because of a higher discount factor, this being precisely the negative wealth effect that is one of the results of a tighter monetary policy, which aims at slowing the domestic absorption of goods and services to bring inflation down.
