Why Bond Funds Should Behave Like Bond Funds

Why Bond Funds Should Behave Like Bond Funds

You wouldn't want your dog behaving like a cat, so why invest in a bond fund that behaves like a stock fund? In this podcast, Mike Gitlin — Capital Group's head of fixed income — explains why this concept is so important for investors seeking a well diversified portfolio.

Listen and learn:

  • Why bond investors may want to avoid excessive credit risk
  • How "bond math" can protect you from rising interest rates
  • Why the outlook for the U.S. economy matters to bond investors
  • And what exactly is the "Post-Post Crisis Period?"

Your host, Matt Miller, is the policy and communications advisor for Capital Group. An author and former Washington Post columnist, Matt was previously co-host of the public radio program Left, Right & Center.
