Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday. This week’s client submitted questions were:

1. Why are markets spooked by the prospect of rising interest rates?
2. Should we be buying bonds and if so, which ones?

Phil, Mike, and Larry examine why the stock market doesn’t like rising interest rates. However rising rates lift the yields on bonds. They then talk about the bond-yield bull market forming and the terrific yields in credit that need to be taken advantage now. They discuss whether now is the time to start buying bonds and which ones are best.
