Investors face one of the most critical decisions of the rate cycle: when to lock in yield and extend duration. The problem? Move too early and you sacrifice flexibility. Move too late and you miss the opportunity for years of enhanced income.
This book provides the solution: a precise, professional-grade playbook for navigating duration decisions as interest rates shift in 2025 and beyond. Through clear frameworks, data-driven analysis, and step-by-step application, you’ll learn how to evaluate yield curve dynamics, credit spreads, and reinvestment risk with clarity.
You’ll discover when extending duration makes sense, how to avoid classic timing mistakes, and how to structure bond portfolios and ETFs to balance both yield and safety. With forward-looking strategies, this guide empowers you to confidently act—not react—as market conditions evolve.
Whether you manage institutional portfolios, client accounts, or personal investments, this playbook transforms uncertainty into a disciplined system for securing stronger, longer-term returns.
Your edge in fixed income starts with mastering duration—before the next shift takes you by surprise.
