Today, we explore the fixed income landscape with Institutional Portfolio Manager, Beau Coash. Beau discusses AI’s impact on the bond market, market volatility amid political developments, and investment strategies in the corporate environment. With inflation cooling and yields no longer at their peak, Beau notes that the Fed is moving closer to cutting rates, signaling a more normal market environment. He also touches on the emerging opportunities in fixed income, which are supported by positive economic indicators such as consumer spending and easing wage pressure. Beau also highlights the bond markets attractiveness, with U.S. Treasury yields at levels not seen since 2006. He outlines investment strategies that favor maintaining liquidity, and shares his current thoughts on the US dollar’s strength.
