    About this Episode

    The last three years have seen considerable market volatility caused by factors including the Covid pandemic, government subsidies, supply chain pressures, and runaway inflation. After all this, fixed income investors might be forgiven for feeling particularly challenged about how to square the latest trends and translate them into asset allocation. Listen to this Talking Heads podcast about absolute return fixed income investing with Portfolio Manager Abhijit Korde and Daniel Morris, Chief Market Strategist. Abhijit discusses three scenarios for the US economy – a Goldilocks-like soft landing benefiting riskier investments such as corporate bonds; stickier-than expected inflation resulting in a rangebound selloff in risky assets; and a (low probability) recession favouring interest rate assets.
