At the beginning of the year, many advocated for the holding of bonds over equities due to interest rate predictions. During this short period, stocks have opened up a +10% gap from bonds.

Many people listen to the forecasts because to them, getting it right could mean a windfall and a false sense of certainty to something which is highly unknowable.
