Investment company (income) industry

Article Abstract:

Favorable trends are likely to keep inflation contained for several years, but there is evidence prices are rising in some economic sectors. Capital appreciation will be provided by stocks rather than bonds for the next three to five years, and investors must evaluate individual bond fund sectors. Low- and high-quality corporate bonds, municipal bonds and treasury bonds are problem areas, and multi-sector funds are the most interesting in 1996.

Investment company (income) industry

Article Abstract:

The US economy has made its predicted soft landing and economic growth is expected to continue through 1996, with weak areas remaining. In spite of recent strength, consumer demand is still soft, and the Federal Reserve is not likely to raise short-term rates. A stronger dollar and international economic recovery are needed to reduce volatility. Several closed-end funds, especially in municipal bonds, may be good short-term investments.

Investment company (income) industry

Article Abstract:

Low long-term interest rates have flattened the yield curve, and many fixed-income investors expect this to remain the case through 1996 with slow economic growth in Europe and the US, and lower prices and debt. The range for long-term rates is expected to remain narrow through the 1990s, and fixed-income investments will be aided by productivity and a strong dollar. Investors should consider individual treasury bonds and funds.
