The theme this week on the One Minute Retirement Tip podcast is: the mid-year outlook 2021. I’m here with my dad and we’re combining our collective 50+ years of experience managing clients’ money to share some insights about what’s going on in the economic and investment landscape right now. Today we’re talking about the bond market. 

To say that interest rates are low is an understatement. [current rate environment]

From David Kelly at JP Morgan Asset Management: “Powell also confirmed that the FOMC is now actively discussing a timetable for tapering its massive bond purchases. Along with its more optimistic outlook on the economy, the committee reiterated its view that higher inflation over the next few months will be transitory and that it will need to see strong growth persist to give the Fed comfort about achieving “substantial progress."

That’s it for today. Thanks for listening! My name is Ashley Micciche here with my father, David Wilson, and this is the One Minute Retirement Tip.
