Corporate bonds: Is that it?
If you're investing in corporate bonds, you might be disappointed by the returns. The Morningstar Corporate Bond Index yields only about 3% and the company's Dave Sekera says that may be as good as it gets all year.
David points out that the current return is better than the 2.5% we got when the index bottomed out last May. However, the fifteen year average is around 5.25%. He examines what the markets can expect over the next few months.
The Morningstar Corporate Bond Index reference in this video includes US corporate bonds with maturities of more than one year and at least USD 500 outstanding.
