Outperformance by the Numbers – Morningstar Rankings
The 2020 market landscape has included a precipitous drop in economic activity, unprecedented volatility, and uncertain growth prospects. At the same time, massive support by global central banks has provided stability for fixed income markets, and the Fed intends to keep interest rates near zero until 2023. Against this backdrop, we are entering a “golden age of credit investing” with opportunities that can help address clients’ growth, income, and capital preservation needs.
