Despite Current Risks, Corporate Bonds Offer a Compelling Option

Market uncertainty continues to linger in the back of fixed income investors' minds. But that can force much-needed recalibration of portfolios as tariffs and rate cuts loom.

VCIT: The Sweet Spot For Corporate Bonds

Intermediate corporate bond ETFs like VCIT have gained traction in 2025 as investors move away from ultra-short and long-duration funds. VCIT offers a ~5% yield and moderate rate sensitivity, putting it in a stronger position if the Fed follows through with expected rate cuts. Spreads are already near historic lows, which means most future returns will come mainly from yield rather than further credit revaluation.

Falling interest rates in 2025 could benefit VCIT, yet current market volatility and credit spreads pose risks to near-term performance. Rising BBB spreads and geopolitical tensions may increase volatility, negatively impacting VCIT's value in the short term.
