The Fixed Income team at money manager Neuberger Berman provides their comprehensive 2011 fixed income outlook. The past year has seen periods of uncertainty in the fixed income market but has also generally provided strong results for spread (non-Treasury) sectors. Looking toward 2011, they believe that, despite several headwinds, the modest U.S. economic recovery is likely to continue and that interest rates will likely remain low. This, in turn, should provide a positive environment for sensible risk-taking and could lead to further outperformance by non-Treasuries moving forward.
