The expectation of falling interest rates leads to an increase in the stock index. A reduction in interest rates makes loans cheaper and increases the profitability of investments, which in turn increases stock prices. This could lead to investors investing more in stocks and less in bonds, which in turn could further boost the stock market.
The impact on the market could mean increased demand for shares, which could lead to further increases in prices. At the same time, due to lower interest rates, investors could increasingly invest in riskier investments, which would influence the financial industry as a whole. However, it is important to note that the performance of the stock market depends on various factors and not solely on interest rates.
