Today, we welcome Beau Coash. Beau is an institutional portfolio manager for fixed-income strategies at Fidelity Investments. Before joining the fixed income team, Beau was global head of syndicate and primary trading for Fidelity Investments Equity Trading division. Beau speaks to host Pamela Ritchie about the current market landscape, its impact on a fixed income and where he’s seeing opportunities right now. Beau explains to Pamela that the team is very excited about bonds this year after a tough go last year. He says we finally have yield back in fixed income and US treasury bonds triple-A rated are looking very attractive. He adds you only get a few chances to buy treasuries really cheap, so this might be a good time to invest. For now, the team is taking a conservative position. They are half-weighted in the high-grade corporate bucket. Beau says anywhere you go with a long duration, there’s lots of wiggle room.
