As leading indicators point to slower growth ahead and a potential for a mild recession later the year, US government money market funds have witnessed inflows, with investors attracted to their yields as well as their low-risk status. However, we believe intermediate high-quality bonds continue to offer an important and compelling option for an investor’s portfolio due to their elevated yields, relative valuations, longer duration profile – particularly beneficial if the Federal Reserve needs to lower rates - and potential negative return correlation to equities. Join Jonathan Duensing, CFA, Head of Fixed Head of Fixed Income and Portfolio Manager and Jonathan Scott, CFA, Deputy Director of Multi-Sector Fixed Income, Portfolio Manager, Amundi US to discuss the state of the fixed income markets and opportunities in high-quality bonds.
Topics included are as follows:
- State of current macro environment on inflation, interest rates, liquidity and recessionary concerns
- Fixed income universe and interest rate expectations
- Opportunities in Multi-Sector Fixed Income Solutions
CFP, CIMA®, CPWA®, CIMC®, RMA®, and AEP® CE Credits have been applied for and are pending approval.
