Creating income from Canadian dividends and the new era of bond investing
 

Since the start of the central bank rate hiking cycle in 2022, many fixed income investors have been focused on capturing the high yields available in short-term investments. However, with many central banks around the world lowering interest rates, the forces that made these short-term investments so attractive are waning. It may be time to start thinking about new ways to create an income stream from your investment portfolio. 

In the December edition of Market Spotlight, our investment professionals discuss key strategies to help you maximize fixed income returns. This includes thinking about target maturity bond funds and using traditional bond funds to grow and preserve capital. They also discuss how to create investment income in your portfolio with Canadian dividends.

At CIBC Private Wealth, we take a comprehensive approach to managing, building and protecting your wealth. If you'd like to discuss commentary in more detail or have questions about your investment portfolio, please get in touch with me anytime.
