Low rates have changed the role fixed income plays in portfolios

HighTower Podcast: Collective Wisdom

Jeremiah Reithmiller of Sarian Strategic Partners and Steve Tresnan of Tresnan Ferst Wealth Advisors cite data showing that fixed income is no longer the same kind of buffer for equities in troubled times. But in this re-broadcast of a past Collective Wisdom episode, the two advisors come up with different solutions for balancing rate risk with the need to provide an equity hedge. While Reithmiller uses a traditional barbell-style strategy to give his clients balance, Tresnan looks more to private credit in order to diversify and achieve better balance.
