Quarterly Market Recap, Bonds, and Our Look Ahead

We're talking about bonds—yes, you read that right! Bond yields are going up. If you haven't wanted to invest in bonds in recent years because yields were low, is now the time to reconsider adding bonds to your portfolio? Monument's Asset Management Team of Dave Armstrong, Erin Hay and Nate Tonsager is back to recap what went on in the markets in Q3 2022 and to give their thoughts on bond yields, owning bond ETFs vs individual bonds, and bond ladders. Off the Wall co-host Jessica Gibbs also asks them for a look ahead to the final quarter of the year and predictions for where markets may be going.     Relevant Resources & Episodes Mentioned: Listen to the Off the Wall episode on recent market volatility: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/resource/quick-update-on-the-recent-market-pullback/ Dave's blog post "You Don't Remember the Pullbacks Where You Didn't Make Mistakes": https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/weekly-market-commentary/you-dont-remember-the-pullbacks-where-you-didnt-make-mistakes/ Dave's blog post on investor sentiment: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/weekly-market-commentary/feeling-like-crap-what-investor-sentiment-is-saying-right-now-and-what-its-suggesting-about-the-future/ Dave's blog post and chart showing the odds are in investors' favor: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/weekly-market-commentary/2022-outlooks/     Connect with Monument Wealth Management: Visit our website: https://monumentwealthmanagement.com Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/monumentwealth Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MonumentWealth Connect with us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/1137603 Connect with us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MonumentWealthManagement   About "Off the Wall" Off the Wall is a podcast aimed at helping you answer the questions: What is the point of my wealth, and what actions can I take to accomplish that purpose?
