Global investors contemplate fallout from US rates reaching 6%

BlackRock Inc. and Schroders Plc are among those who are weighing in on the debate of what will happen if US rates peak at 6%. As late as end-February, investors across bonds, stocks and currency markets were still calling for an end to higher rates with expectations for a broad rally in the second half.
