AAM Viewpoints: A dive into 2020 Fixed Income Markets & what they tell us for 2021
This piece is approved to use with clients.
The unfolding of diverse and largely unseen set of events in 2020 make it difficult to select only a few that we feel represent the tenor of the fixed income markets and the broad economy within this commentary.

This piece is approved to use with clients.
In a year filled with a cacophony of conflicting messages and each one portrayed as the real black swan event to change the world, it seems overly provincial to narrow the next year down to one metric. However, when this metric is and has been highly disregarded as a material issue anymore, it seems those events approach a level of blind spot that transforms markets.

AAM Viewpoints – Our generational opportunity call on commodities remains intact
This piece is approved to use with clients.
In January of this year we published my Viewpoints article, “Generational Opportunity Now for the Next Decade?” The article was a contrarian call on the prices of commodities and outlined what we felt was a very significant price apex and the opportunities that created.
