Fixed Income in a QE World: Yields Compress, Russell Adjusts
Jeff
Hussey, CFA, Chief Investment Officer of Fixed Income for Russell recently
published this excellent piece on their perception of this unprecedented high
bond market. He warns us that in
today’s environment, it is critical that investors remain vigilant about the
risks in their fixed income portfolios and take active approaches to
potentially avert harmful outcomes as bond yields rise. Managing fixed income in a rising interest
rate environment is tricky and we appreciate that Russell is adjusting to
current market conditions and minimizing the risk for this asset class.
