We've expected credit spreads to deteriorate for quite some time. In our view, new economic data, a technical lag in spread activity, and the Iran war might consolidate the argument. While re-inflation risk has to be acknowledged, we think investors will stay in and migrate to higher-quality bonds from riskier assets. The iShares National Muni Bond ETF is a prime candidate, showing less spread risk than investment grade bonds and lower volatility than intermediate-term treasury ETF, IEF.

MUB's seven-year duration makes it sensitive to yield changes, but credit risk remains minimal as most holdings are AA-rated, and credit spreads have been under control. Inflation risks are subdued thanks to lower oil prices and modest U.S. import exposure, easing one major headwind for fixed income.
