Conventional fixed-income ETFs are not the reduced-risk investment many expect. Actually, they are aggressive active bets on the direction of future interest rates. That gamble worked magnificently for most of the past 33 years. But unless we expect substantial negative interest rates (i.e. huge taxes against savings), that play has to sour going forward. To achieve what we really want from fixed income, we need maturity dates, something we get from Guggenheim’s “defined maturity” ETFs. |
