Over the past 18 months, we\u2019ve all learned a thing or two while adapting to quarantine life. I, for one, mastered using a headset designed for professional gamers on work calls, while also using time I had previously spent on the Metro-North figuring out how to grow vegetables in Connecticut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In financial markets, investors have had to do some adapting as well. Equities are back to all-time highs, inflation is jumping higher, the political and regulatory climate is a source of uncertainty, and an unprecedented amount of liquidity in the system alongside huge global demand for high quality bonds has pushed yields to rock-bottom levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a way, the last 18 months haven\u2019t been entirely different from the last 10 years of managing diversified income portfolios. The market ebbs and flows, but ultimately drives higher over time. But there are a few things that have surprised me over the decade I\u2019ve managed the Multi-Asset Income Fund<\/strong><\/a> that will likely shape how we think about finding attractive income and returns in the next decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, back in 2011, I would have never thought the Fed\u2019s zero interest rate policy would still be in place 10 years later. Furthermore, it\u2019s pretty wild that we have record equity levels and strong global growth coming out of the pandemic, yet the 10-year Treasury yield sits about 40bps lower than the 1.97% level when we launched the fund. And even looking ahead to the 10-year forward curve today, the market\u2019s anticipating the 10-year yield will be at 2.3% in five years \u2013 certainly not what many investors thought a decade ago. We\u2019ve run big deficits, more than doubled the market value of outstanding Treasury debt, and yet the market views the growth outlook as stubbornly fragile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Market expectations for interest rates remain muted<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Market<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So, what does this mean for investors? Don\u2019t expect much from core fixed income in the years ahead. There has been a close historical relationship between starting yields and forward-looking returns. Meaning, if the market believes the 10-year Treasury yield is still only at 2.2% in 5 years, you\u2019re unlikely to expect much more than that in total return from core bonds. This is why we continue to embrace areas like high yield bonds, bank loans, high quality dividend stocks, and covered calls. This diversification and willingness to take more risk in search of income and returns may be more crucial going forward than it has been the last 10 years<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second thing that has surprised me is the outperformance of the U.S. over Europe. While I thought U.S. equities would lead, the S&P 500\u2019s more than 350% return over the last ten years easily beats the EuroStoxx\u2019s roughly 125% move.* Throwing emerging markets into the mix gives an even more pronounced picture \u2013 broad emerging market stocks (as measured by the MSCI Emerging Market Index) are up roughly 70% over that time, with most of that return coming from dividends, not price movement. While this level of outperformance going forward may not be sustainable, I think it tells investors that winners can continue winning, even in the face of elevated valuations and myriad of headwinds and uncertainties they may face. Does this mean equity diversification is dead? No, quite the contrary, as some of these losers may transition to outperformers moving forward. But it does highlight the diversified nature of the U.S. market and its ability to outperform over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third, yields across virtually all fixed income sectors have experienced a tremendous drop \u2013 one I didn\u2019t necessarily think was possible. For example, the average yield on high yield bonds (represented by the BBG US HY 2% Issuer Cap TR Index) has gone from ~9% to around ~4% today. Investment grade bond yields (represented by the BBG US Corp Bond TR Index) touched an all-time low of ~1.7% and today don\u2019t sit much higher. Why is this important? With inflation running hotter, the real yield on virtually all high-quality bonds is negative. Furthermore, a record level of bonds are now rated triple-B \u2013 the lowest grade to qualify as investment grade. This is a sign, in my opinion, that investors are not getting compensated for the risk they are taking. While we\u2019re not calling for a massive threat to high quality bonds, we\u2019re simply pointing out unless investors are willing to take a bit more risk within their fixed income allocations, there is a significant risk the yield won\u2019t even offset inflation in the years ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The short takeaway from these observations is that delivering attractive investment outcomes may be more challenging and more complicated moving forward. Which leads me to my last point \u2013 one thing I\u2019ll never compromise despite trickier market dynamics: a risk-first approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In many ways, the last 10 years were a time of profound change for the financial system, during which many of the conventional wisdoms of investing were up upended. We\u2019ve had to adapt but we continue to uphold our responsibilities to our investors, understanding their financial goals are the same and more important than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International investing involves special risks including, but not limited to political risks, currency fluctuations, illiquidity and volatility.

Typically, when interest rates rise, there is a corresponding decline in bond values. Credit risk refers to the possibility that the bond issuer will not be able to make principal and interest payments.
