The views expressed are those of the author at the time of writing. Other teams may hold different views and make different investment decisions. The value of your investment may become worth more or less than at the time of original investment. While any third-party data used is considered reliable, its accuracy is not guaranteed. For professional, institutional, or accredited investors only.
This past year, with structurally higher inflation and rising interest rates, both equity and bond markets declined, challenging this risk mitigating relationship. So we want to emphasize the importance of looking for downside mitigation in different places.
