Uncertainty in the municipal bond market isn’t new but how you respond to it makes all the difference. With spreads widening, rates rising, and liquidity tight, active management is being put to the test.
In this episode, host Chris Roberti is joined by Matt Hage, Portfolio Manager and Trader at MacKay Municipal Managers, speaking from the firm’s trading desk in Los Angeles. Matt shares real-time insights on what’s shaping the municipal bond market this spring, covering issuance trends, political uncertainty, liquidity challenges, and the valuation backdrop clients are watching closely. Chris and Matt unpack what’s working in today’s portfolios, how active management is navigating recent volatility, and why the current muni setup may be one of the most compelling in years. They also talk credit fundamentals, portfolio positioning, and how investors should be thinking about duration risk going forward.
