We know, we know. Bonds aren't a very sexy asset class. You're not about to impress a potential mate with your bond portfolio. They're boring and offer limited returns.
But maybe things are changing. U.S. Treasury bonds are suddenly offering 5%+ yields, which is more than a lot of dividends. There's a certain appeal to putting all your money in Treasuries and heading to the beach.
We discuss the pros and cons of that plan from a Canadian perspective, and offer a more balanced look at the role bonds might play in your portfolio -- including why they might be most valuable as a ballast, as a source of fresh capital to put to work when stocks are down.
We also go over the dangers of chasing yield in the bond world, how what look like super generous payouts are riskier than they seem.
