Fixed income perspectives

April 2025

“Risk assets should perform – and are performing – poorly, while flight-to-quality assets like U.S. Treasuries are generally doing well.”

Fixed-income perspectives: March 2025

“While it’s hard to predict what the catalyst will be, we do expect to see a bout of volatility at some point, and we have plenty of dry powder to take advantage of it.”

Fixed-income perspectives: Febuary 2025

“Fewer cuts are now priced in, and a higher-yield narrative is predominant. But all that can change swiftly, and we can envision many scenarios in which the bond market produces a capital gain.” 

Fixed-income perspectives: January 2025

“ In the U.S., the transfer of power from the Biden administration to the Trump administration will certainly bring changes to many government policies, yet the impact (both direction and magnitude) of those changes on the economy and markets during 2025 is unclear. ”
