Michael Grant, Co-Chief Investment Officer at Calamos Investments — Co-Manager of the Calamos Long/Short Equity & Dynamic Income Trust — says that current market conditions have made it that bonds are no longer a natural working hedge for equities downturns, and the downside risk in terms of capital return can be greater in the bond market than in stocks. He notes that investors are over-exposed to Magnificent Seven and the biggest of the large-cap stocks — noting that the typical client has about 40 percent of their equity assets there — and they need to diversify away from those positions to be less market-sensitive. He worries that turning to bonds in an inflationary environment will create portfolio pain, so he's looking to non-correlated assets to ride out the rate cycle, tariff problems and more.
