High-yield bonds are showing strong income potential. Bond manager David Daigle discusses how these bonds have evolved from the 1980s' debt-fueled buyouts depicted in the movie Wall Street. In a conversation with Mike Gitlin, he compares high-yield debt investing to avalanche safety training and shares which investors may benefit from exposure to high-yield bonds. David also relays how investing in companies that ended in bankruptcy shapes his view on risk.

JoAnne Bianco, partner and portfolio manager at BondBloxx, says that investors should be re-assessing risk and deciding if the market's current moves are an over-reaction that could rebound or something more sticky, and she notes that some fixed-income assets have been the best performers this year. She notes that long-duration Treasuries and U.S. corporate bonds have been stellar and seem to have priced in a lot of the turmoil, and she expects those asset classes to be less volatile than the market generally. She also likes the big payouts — without heightened default rates — in high-yield bonds now.  Andrew Guillette discusses the latest U.S. investor survey from Broadridge Financial Solutions, which showed that one of the best ways to get better performance is to add some individual stocks to a balanced portfolio of mutual funds, with the single names helping to boost gains and put a strategy over the top. Plus Kirk McDonald, portfolio manager at Argent Capital, makes his debut in the Market Call talking mid-cap stocks, and Chuck talks about the moves he thinks nervous investors can make now that give them more control without blowing up their portfolio based on short-term market moves.

Read High Yield and Bank Loan OutlookMacro Markets Podcast Episode 65: Macro and Micro Views on Credit Opportunities in a Shifting Economy Top-down and bottom-up perspectives on opportunity in the high yield and bank loan market. Listen to Macro Markets Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. In general, the value of a fixed-income security falls when interest rates rise and rises when interest rates fall. Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility. Private debt investments are generally considered illiquid and not quoted on any exchange; thus they are difficult to value. The process of valuing investments for which reliable market quotations are not available is based on inherent uncertainties and may not be accurate. Further, the level of discretion used by an investment manager to value private debt securities could lead to conflicts of interest.This material is distributed for informational or educational purposes only and should not be considered a recommendation of any particular security, strategy, or investment product, or as investing advice of any kind.

As the saying goes, you don't need to be wealthy to start saving—but you do need savings to build wealth.Right now, one of the best ways to grow your savings is by taking advantage of high-yield savings accounts. But how long will these elevated rates last? Let's explore what's driving these rates and what you can do to maximize your savings.The Role of a Savings AccountBefore we dive into high-yield savings, let's clarify what a savings account is—and what it's not. Unlike investing accounts involving higher risk, a savings account is a secure place for short-term financial needs.A savings account is ideal for:Your emergency fundBig purchases you plan to make in the next few years, such as a car or home repairsCurrently, some online savings accounts offer interest rates between 4.75% and 5%, significantly outperforming traditional brick-and-mortar banks. But why are these rates so high?The Inflation Factor: Why Rates Are HighInflation plays a significant role in determining interest rates. The Federal Reserve typically raises interest rates to slow inflation down when inflation rises.Over the past couple of years, inflation has remained higher than the Fed's 2% target. As a result, the Fed has held off on cutting rates as originally anticipated.Bad news? If you have a variable-rate loan like a credit card or home equity line of credit, you're paying more in interest.Good news? You're earning more on your savings if you have a high-yield savings account.Because banks adjust their rates based on the Fed's actions, the question remains: How long will these higher yields last?Will Savings Yields Stay High?Only God knows for sure, but we can make an educated guess based on two factors:The latest inflation numbers—If inflation continues around 3%, the Fed may hold steady, keeping savings rates high.The Federal Reserve's reaction—If inflation drops to 2.5%, the Fed might cut interest rates, eventually leading to lower savings yields.Even when the Fed does cut rates, it can take time for savings yields to follow. Banks tend to delay lowering interest rates on savings accounts. Likewise, when the Fed raises rates, banks take their time increasing yields.Why? Because banks don't want to be the first to make a move. They wait to see how competitors react so they can stay within industry standards while remaining competitive.How to Get the Best Savings RatesSince banks adjust rates at their own pace, it's wise to monitor trends. If your bank consistently offers lower yields than what's available online, consider moving your money.To compare savings rates, check websites like:BankrateNerdWalletAdditionally, if savings account yields start dropping, you might consider alternatives like:Certificates of Deposit (CDs)—Offer fixed, higher yields for a set period.Money Market Accounts—Typically have higher yields than standard savings accounts.Credit Unions: A Hidden Gem for High YieldsIf you're dissatisfied with your bank's rates, you don't necessarily need to switch to an online bank. Credit unions often offer higher savings yields than traditional banks.Unlike for-profit banks, credit unions return profits to their members through:Higher interest rates on savingsLower fees and better loan ratesOne faith-based option is Christian Community Credit Union, which offers competitive savings rates and gives a portion of its revenues to support ministry efforts worldwide.

As equity markets gyrate in response to unpredictable U.S. policy, credit has taken longer to respond. Our Head of Corporate Credit Research, Andrew Sheets, suggests other indicators investors should have an eye on, including growth data.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Today on the podcast, I'll be discussing how much comfort or concern equity and credit markets should be taking from each other's recent moves.It's Friday, March 14th at 2pm in London. Credit has weakened as markets have gyrated in the face of rising uncertainty around U.S. economic policy. But it has been a clear outperformer. The credit market has taken longer to react to recent headlines, and seen a far more modest response to them. While the U.S. stock market, measured as the S&P 500, is down about 10 per cent, the U.S. High Yield bond index, comprised of lower-rated corporate bonds, is down about just 1 per cent.How much comfort should stock markets take from credit's resilience? And what could cause Credit to now catch-down to that larger weakness in equities?A good place to start with these questions is what we think are really three distinct stories behind the volatility and weakness that we're seeing in markets. First, the nature of U.S. policy towards tariffs, with plenty of on-again, off-again drama, has weakened business confidence and dealmaking; and that's cut off a key source of corporate animal spirits and potential upside in the market. Second and somewhat relatedly, that reduced upside has lowered enthusiasm for many of the stocks that had previously been doing the best. Many of these stocks were widely held, and that's created vulnerability and forced selling as previously popular positions were cut. And third, there have been growing concerns that this lower confidence from businesses and consumers will spill over into actual spending, and raise the odds of weaker growth and even a recession.I think a lot of credit's resilience over the last month and a half, can be chalked up to the fact that the asset class is rightfully more relaxed about the first two of these issues. Lower corporate confidence may be a problem for the stock market, but it can actually be an ok thing if you're a lender because it keeps borrowers more conservative. And somewhat relatedly, the sell-off in popular, high-flying stocks is also less of an issue. A lot of these companies are, for the most part, quite different from the issuers that dominate the corporate credit market.But the third issue, however, is a big deal. Credit is extremely sensitive to large changes in the economy. Morgan Stanley's recent downgrade of U.S. growth expectations, the lower prices on key commodities, the lower yields on government bonds and the underperformance of smaller more cyclical stocks are all potential signs that risks to growth are rising. It's these factors that the credit market, perhaps a little bit belatedly, is now reacting to.So what does this all mean?First, we're mindful of the temptation for equity investors to look over at the credit market and take comfort from its resilience. But remember, two of the biggest issues that have faced stocks – those lower odds of animal spirits, and the heavy concentration in a lot of the same names – were never really a credit story. And so to feel better about those risks, we think you'll want to look at other different indicators.Second, what about the risk from the other direction, that credit catches up – or maybe more accurately down – to the stock market? This is all about that third factor: growth. If the growth data holds up, we think credit investors will feel justified in their more modest reaction, as all-in yields remain good. But if data weakens, the risks to credit grow rapidly, especially as our U.S. economists think that the Fed could struggle to lower interest rates as fast as markets are currently hoping they will.And so with growth so important, and Morgan Stanley's tracking estimates for U.S. growth currently weak, we think it's too early to go bottom fishing in corporate bonds.

In general, the value of a fixed-income security falls when interest rates rise and rises when interest rates fall. Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility. Private debt investments are generally considered illiquid and not quoted on any exchange; thus they are difficult to value. The process of valuing investments for which reliable market quotations are not available is based on inherent uncertainties and may not be accurate.
