Portfolio manager Jeff Moore joins us on the program today to talk us through the bond market and what factors might affect this space in 2024. Jeff speaks about the current inflationary environment. He says inflation is falling and most likely on the run. He adds with bond yields at 4% and real rates at 2% these numbers haven’t been as compelling since the nineties. But he says the bond market is basically at the same state as it was last year. Typically the returns from bonds are in the range of 6 to 10% depending on the asset. Jeff says the strategy here would be to enjoy the current yields, diversify your portfolios and avoid leverage. He advises to stay vigilant and responsive to changes in CPI numbers.
