Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 1 opinions in the last 12 months.

The debate surrounding 1- to 2-year treasuries, such as BONDS-T, hinges on whether to sell early or hold until maturity. Holding these treasuries makes sense if the investor's goal is to maintain a fixed income allocation, as this aligns with their investment strategy. However, there is a counterpoint for those considering the potential for better opportunities that could arise, particularly in the stock market. If equities experience a significant downturn, the cash raised from selling these bonds could be redirected towards stocks that offer higher yields. Thus, the decision ultimately depends on the investor’s outlook on the market and their personal financial strategy.

COMMENT
Canada and US 1- to 2-year treasuries -- sell early or hold till maturity?

If you want a fixed income allocation and that's why you bought them, then you should hold them because that's who you are. 

If you have them and think there'd be a better opportunity, such as if the stock market really takes a massive beating further from here, that could be a source of cash to deploy into equities at much higher yields (even if the share price wanders around in the wilderness for a while).

BUY

Right now, corporate bonds are very expensive compared to government bonds, the tightest spreads have been in years for both investment-grade and high yield. He'd favour owning government bonds. Provincial bonds yield more than the Government of Canada bonds do. Pretty attractive yield compared to corporates. 6 years and under is the sweet spot for the term.

HOLD
Canada 5 year.

Yield curve is inverted. A year from now, he expects the yield on this to be a lot lower than it is now and you'll have a positive return. But in the short run, there's room for the yield to rise on it somewhat. 

If you have other bonds, don't be worried. But if it's the only one you own, a short-term call is to consider selling it. If you're comfortable holding it and it jibes with the rest of your portfolio, continue to do so.

TOP PICK
Coupon 0.5%. Matures December 1, 2030.

Trading at a huge discount. Appeal is it's at a deep discount, instantly liquid, good after-tax yield. This is the longest term he'd go out to. High quality.
