Sam Dickie: Fisher Funds Senior Portfolio Manager on the worst quarterly return on record for bonds - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

It’s no secret that stock markets have been very volatile this year and investors have had a tough time.
And now investors in bonds, which are always considered to be safe and conservative, are all over the shop as well.
This year, the return from investing in a global government bond is down more than 8 percent on average so far and the return from investing in a global corporate bond is down more than 9 percent on average so far.
In some cases, it’s down more than equity investments.
It’s the worst quarterly return on record for bonds.
Fisher Funds Senior Portfolio Manager Sam Dickie joined Andrew Dickens.
