Hey everyone, welcome back to our blog. Today we are going to talk about a question a lot of investors are asking right now, "What happens to the bonds I own in a rising interest rate environment?"
When interest rates go up, the value of bonds you own can go down. Since 1982, interest rates have been in a long-term downward trend. If they are going to begin to start going up, bonds could be a difficult place to be, and you may be asking yourself what to do.
What you need to do is sit down with an adviser to go over a few things, including your exposure to bonds overall, the quality of your bonds, and the maturity of the bond itself.
It's time to rethink your exposure to bonds, and you'll want to do this before interest rates rise and the value of your bonds go down.
If you have any questions for us, feel free to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!
