We saw a fourth consecutive 75 basis-point rate hike from the U.S. Federal Reserve in November. With Fed Chair Powell indicating that there is more room to run, is now the time for investors to adjust their portfolio model and consider a larger position in bonds? Our guest today is Andrei Bruno, Director, ETF Capital Markets, at Fidelity Canada. With host Pamela Ritchie, Andrei unpacks the latest updates from the November FOMC meeting and what it may mean for capital markets. A couple of key highlights from today’s discussion include Andrei noting the outlook for inflation does look a bit better for 2023 compared to what we saw in 2022. Also, in the U.S., pension plans are starting to look at fixed income closer, specifically mid to longer-dated investment-grade bonds, replacing equity investments.
