Investors are finally getting paid to save again. Foreign to younger readers, there was a time when you could earn 5% simply by holding cash in a savings account.

While we aren’t back there yet, 4%–5% safe yields are out there, even for individual investors.

This week, we checked in on the fixed-income market with an asset manager who controls $40 billion in the capital.

I first met Jason Brady, President and CEO of Thornburg Investment Management, at a conference hosted by our own Jared Dillian. The two are good friends and were in the same class at Lehman Brothers. Jason shared where he is finding opportunities in fixed income. Today, Jason and I covered:

How the markets have returned to normal
The Fed’s big mistake in 2020
The prospect for interest rate cuts in 2023
The best places to find opportunities in bonds
How individual investors are getting bonds all wrong
