S3 E4: The debate around buying individual bonds versus bond mutual funds and ETFs is a polarizing one in the investment world. Proponents of individual bonds tout the benefit of a maturity date, which the other securities generally don’t offer. Jeff Harrell will give you all the information you need to decide for yourself if this benefit is worth the tradeoff.
Most investors are completely unaware of the advantages that bond funds have over individual bonds for the average retail investor. In just over 10 minutes, you’ll gain a wealth of knowledge as Jeff explains the role bonds play in a portfolio and how bond prices work, and shares his experience with the actual performance of individual bonds compared to bond mutual funds and ETFs.
This is another episode that will debunk common financial market assumptions that are all-too-often made without real-world empirical evidence.
