Why Bond ETFs Like LQD Are Trading Below Par Now
from The Bond Market Podcast with Fexingo: Treasuries, Yields, and Fixed Income for Beginners · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna dive into why investment-grade corporate bond ETFs like LQD and AGG are trading below their net asset values — and what that tells you about liquidity stress in fixed-income markets. They unpack the mechanics of ETF pricing versus underlying bonds, the role of authorized participants, and why the current discounts are a symptom of a bigger structural shift. With the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.47 percent and credit spreads still tight, the disconnect in ETF pricing is a signal worth watching. A practical episode for anyone who buys bond ETFs and wants to understand what 'price versus value' really means. #LQD #AGG #BondMarket #ETF #FixedIncome #InvestmentGrade #CorporateBonds #Liquidity #NetAssetValue #AuthorizedParticipant #Spread #Treasury #Yield #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #BondETF #Finance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
