Ideas
Priya Misra Portfolio Manager, J.P. Morgan Asset Management 42:00
Buy duration as bond selloff opportunity.
The global bond selloff and the rise in term premiums are an opportunity rather than a fundamental break. U.S. fundamentals remain solid, inflation is trending closer to 2%, a large fiscal expansion is unlikely, and the Fed is on hold, so the yield range should hold; duration is where she sees the best opportunity.
TLT HIGH
Priya Misra Portfolio Manager, J.P. Morgan Asset Management 42:00
Like credit on strong US fundamentals.
She still likes credit because the U.S. economy is strong and resilient, inflation is heading along, corporate bond demand should remain solid, and fixed income provides income and diversification. The credit market is tight but overall demand is supported by fundamentals.
US Corporate Credit HIGH
Priya Misra Portfolio Manager, J.P. Morgan Asset Management 46:00
AI bond issuance may widen spreads.
There will be a lot of AI-related corporate issuance to fund the buildout. Demand and earnings remain solid, but large supply is likely to bring new-issue concessions and wider spreads, so investors should watch the issuance and valuation dynamic.
AI-related corporate bonds MED
Priya Misra Portfolio Manager, J.P. Morgan Asset Management 46:39
Underweight tight-spread credit late cycle.
Dispersion in the credit market is rising and the market is late in the credit cycle. Investors should be careful about leverage and revenue, pick up dispersion, and underweight sectors where spreads have already disappeared.
