Hightower Podcast: Collective Wisdom

Richard Sapertein, chief investment officer, Treasury Partners -- a HighTower advisory firm -- gave Collective Wisdom host Chuck Jaffe a surprising take on how bond investors should act in the face of negative interest rates on international treasury securities and falling interest rates at home. Saperstein said that as the negative global rate environment 'marches onto U.S. shores,' investors should actually extend maturities on the fixed-income instruments they are using, even though that could put them on the short end of the inverted yield curve. Saperstein explains that and more in this bonus Collective Wisdom podcast.
