The S&P 500 is starting to see some selling pressure as a result of rising interest rates — and there could be more to come.

In today’s ‘Closing Bell’ video, I have a peek beneath the surface at a few important sectors that are seeing stiff selling pressure.

Banks, homebuilders, high-yield corporate debt, mortgage-backed securities, and investment-grade corporate bonds are all nosediving, with a few of them skidding faster than they have in many years.

But gold has been holding up well, and a few of the stragglers in the gold sector have started to catch a bid.

Gold’s rise despite the jump across the board in the US yield curve and the leap in the US dollar is quite impressive and is possibly a hint that further rises are around the corner.

I finish up today’s ‘Closing Bell’ video by showing you a few of the beaten-up gold stocks that look like they have turned a corner.

Check out my analysis in the ‘Closing Bell’ video below:

The US-Iran conflict is now almost six months old. What began with military strikes has developed into a combination of diplomacy and economic warfare. The world is watching the global order redefine itself as countries realign and reposition themselves.

The small end of the ASX has gone nowhere for ten months. Something shifted in the last fortnight, and most investors have not noticed it yet.
