Trump policies likely to raise bond market's inflation fears, top money managers say

Giant U.S. asset managers overseeing well over $20 trillion are anticipating continued price pressures because of President Donald Trump's immigration and trade policies, a scenario that will likely keep threatening the bond market this year. Vanguard, the world's second-largest asset manager, which manages over $10 trillion, said in a first-quarter fixed income outlook report seen by Reuters that it expects "progress on inflation to stall," with core measures of price pressures stuck above the Federal Reserve's 2% target and above 2.5% for most of 2025. Trade and immigration policies implemented by Trump's Republican administration could complicate the picture further, it said in a report written by its active fixed income team, led by Sara Devereux, the global head of fixed income group.
