Fixed Income Strategies

Your investment strategy should be driven by multiple factors, each of which deserve a careful thought. Personal goals, investment objectives, and the ability to assume risks are essential deliberations in constructing a sound investment strategy. Fixed income strategies may not sound appealing to most young people and one of the main reasons is the lack of education and/or information on fixed income securities and investments.

Fixed-income investments are securities that provide regular interest or dividend payments and, in many cases, a return of principal at maturity. Their primary objective is income with limited, if any, growth potential. Remember, the rate of return on a fixed-income investment can be fixed throughout its holding period (e.g., bonds) or can fluctuate with the general movement of interest rates (e.g., Series EE U.S. savings bonds and money market mutual funds). A good example of a variable interest rate is the money market account that you may have.

CDs and Money Market Funds

CDs and Money market funds are both considered short term safe investment options. CDs offer a slightly higher yield than Treasury bills because of the slightly higher default risk for a bank but, overall, the likelihood that a large bank will go broke is pretty slim.

On the other hand, Money market mutual funds are a type of mutual fund consisting of high quality, short-term debt instruments such as Treasury bills and short term corporate IOUs. Like all mutual funds, money market mutual fund (MMMF) portfolios are professionally managed and a management fee is charged against fund assets to cover this expense.
