What's Going On With Treasury Rates?
We think the Fed has time to assess the impact of tariffs, and we expect it to wait to cut rates until the data show that tariffs are impacting the real economy. So far, there are no signs of recession in the hard data. The tariff pause offers the possibility to avoid worst-case economic scenarios before the damage is crystalized. We believe technical factors will continue to drive market dislocations in spreads and sectors, and that active managers can navigate this more effectively.

IGIB: Banking Exposure And Duration Concerns Under Trump
Historically low credit spreads make any credit risk uninteresting. Duration is also not favorable, with Trump's rhetoric and possible actions contributing to upward revisions in inflation expectations. We also don't particularly like taking the credit approach to banking right now, with deregulation also on the agenda.

IGIB ETF: Favoring Intermediate Duration And Low Credit Spread Exposure
I favor the iShares 5-10 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF for its intermediate-term exposure and low expense ratio of 0.04%. Lower implied interest rates and a steepening yield curve could boost IGIB ETF's price returns in excess of the potential impact on the ETF's income component. I believe the IGIB ETF has a well-diversified portfolio, respectable dividend profile, and compelling expense ratio, which enhances its long-term total return prospects.

IGIB Vs. IGSB: Which One Is The Better Pick?
The U.S. Federal Reserve plans to slow its quantitative tightening program, indicating a potential interest rate pivot. However, the interest rate environment remains uncertain. The iShares 1-5 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF has a shorter duration and lower credit quality risk compared to the iShares 5-10 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF. The market outlook suggests ongoing interest rate uncertainty, making IGSB a more suitable choice for reducing duration.

The Credit Opportunity In M&A
M&A was almost dormant in 2023. In the US, as a proportion of the market value of the benchmark equity indices, it fell to its lowest level in 20 years, according to McKinsey. Credit investors are not traditionally supposed to be fans of M&A, and it's true we are wary of leveraging M&A, where debt is loaded onto balance sheets to buy competitors. We are seeing a comeback for M&A that we think is likely to continue through 2024.
