FYI: When it comes to fixed income, 2016 has been a tale of two halves. For the first six months of the year, it was straight up for bonds―and straight down for interest rates, which move inversely with bond prices. Those first six months were characterized by a host of concerns: about China, Brexit and low oil prices.
