  • Convertible Bond Investing Brochure (PDF)
    Convertible bond investing Invesco’s Convertible Securities Strategy 1 Introduction to convertible bonds A primer Convertible securities provide investors the opportunity to participate in the upside of stock markets while also offering potential downside protection. Because convertibles possess both stock- and bond-like attributes, they may be particularly useful in minimizing risk in a portfolio. The following is an introduction to convertibles, how they exhibit characteristics of both stocks and bonds, and where convertibles may fit in a diversified portfolio. Reasons for investing in convertibles Through their combination of stock and bond characteristics, convertibles may offer the following potential advantages over traditional stock and bond instruments: • Yield advantage over stocks • More exposure to market gains than market losses • Historically attractive risk-adjusted returns • Better risk-return profile • Lower interest rate risk Introduction to convertibles A convertible bond is a corporate bond that has the added feature of being convertible into a fixed number of shares of common stock. As a hybrid security, convertibles have the potential to offer equity-like returns due to their stock component with potentially less volatility due to their bond-like features. Convertibles are also higher in the capital structure than common stock, which means that companies must fulfill their obligations to convertible bondholders before stockholders. It is important to note that convertibles are subject to interest rate and credit risks that are applicable to traditional bonds. Simplified convertible structure Bond Call option Convertible Source: BofA Merrill Lynch Convertible Research. The bond feature of these securities comes from their stated interest rate and claim to principal.

  • Derivative Securities
    2. DERIVATIVE SECURITIES Objectives: After reading this chapter, you will 1. Understand the reason for trading options. 2. Know the basic terminology of options. 2.1 Derivative Securities A derivative security is a financial instrument whose value depends upon the value of another asset. The main types of derivatives are futures, forwards, options, and swaps. An example of a derivative security is a convertible bond. Such a bond, at the discretion of the bondholder, may be converted into a fixed number of shares of the stock of the issuing corporation. The value of a convertible bond depends upon the value of the underlying stock, and thus, it is a derivative security. An investor would like to buy such a bond because he can make money if the stock market rises. The stock price, and hence the bond value, will rise. If the stock market falls, he can still make money by earning interest on the convertible bond. Another derivative security is a forward contract. Suppose you have decided to buy an ounce of gold for investment purposes. The price of gold for immediate delivery is, say, $345 an ounce. You would like to hold this gold for a year and then sell it at the prevailing rates. One possibility is to pay $345 to a seller and get immediate physical possession of the gold, hold it for a year, and then sell it. If the price of gold a year from now is $370 an ounce, you have clearly made a profit of $25. That is not the only way to invest in gold.

  • Managing Fixed Income Late in the Credit Cycle: Navigating the Path Forward
    INCOME INVESTING Managing fixed income late in the credit cycle: navigating the path forward nuveen knows Highlights • While we are clearly in the late stage of the credit cycle, we don’t think a recession is imminent and believe investors should feel comfortable investing in credit 2Q19 markets throughout the rest of 2019. • We believe investors should focus on higher-quality issues with improving credit fundamentals, while seeking to diversify across industries and geographies. • Nuveen’s sector specialist teams are finding attractive opportunities in U.S. credit sectors, including high yield, but they are increasingly diversifying into other higher-income areas, such as emerging market debt and leveraged loans. • Active management can add value in any environment, but we believe it is especially beneficial at the current stage of the credit cycle. The multi-trillion-dollar question for investors: How late are we in the credit cycle, and what are the portfolio implications? That’s the question we most often hear from our clients. And while there are few certainties in life or markets, we feel confident in our answer: We are clearly in the late stage of the credit cycle. But “late” doesn’t mean “done,” and credit cycles don’t die of old age. Rather, a combination of fundamentals and sentiment bring about their demise, and even in their later stages, savvy investors can find opportunities not only to protect their investments, but to position their portfolios for an emphasis on income as the cycle turns. Nuveen believes most investors should be comfortable investing in the credit markets throughout the rest of 2019.
