Are 7% Bonds Back? A New Opportunity for Income Investors | Weekly Market Watch

The fourth quarter is off to a strong start, and Adam and Blake are seeing opportunities on both sides of the portfolio.

In this week’s market update, they take a look at Tesla’s ambitious plans for 2027 and the recent momentum behind SpaceX. Both companies offer exciting potential, but their valuations and volatility also make them highly speculative investments.

Then they turn to an opportunity that may be particularly interesting for income-focused investors: bonds.

With interest rates at levels we haven’t seen in years, some high-quality corporate bonds are offering yields in the 6% to 7%+ range. Adam and Blake discuss why that could create new options for investors who previously needed heavier stock-market exposure to reach their return goals.

In this episode:

  • Tesla’s ambitious 2027 plans and valuation challenges
  • SpaceX’s recent rally and long-term potential
  • How speculative investments can fit within a diversified portfolio
  • Why the strong start to Q4 has their attention
  • Rising Treasury yields and what they mean for investors
  • High-quality corporate bonds yielding 6% to 7%+
  • The risks and opportunities of locking in longer-term yields
