With the Federal Reserve expected to start cutting rates this week, BlackRock’s Rick Rieder suggests that investors take advantage of the “golden age of fixed income” now. Rieder sees a shift in the market and believes that buying yield is a compelling proposition. Traders are divided on whether the rate cut will be a quarter-point or a half-point, with Rieder leaning towards the former. He likes assets such as securitized products, high yield, and European credit. Rieder is not worried about narrow spreads in high-yield credit, as he believes fundamentals are strong. He advises investors to be selective in owning high yield, focusing on BB credit in Europe and B-rated bonds in the U.S. He also recommends combining high yield with assets like agency mortgage-backed securities and AAA-rated CLOs for a balanced portfolio.
