Market insights and commentary from Guggenheim Investments.

Guggenheim Investments presents its Q2 2026 relative-value outlook across the full fixed-income spectrum, covering rates, investment-grade and high-yield corporates, bank loans, ABS/CLOs, RMBS, CMBS, munis, agency MBS, private debt, and real assets. Against a backdrop of Middle East geopolitical risk and elevated oil prices, the firm maintains a baseline of ~2% U.S. real GDP growth and expects the Fed to cut rates twice in H2 2026, favouring higher-quality credit with active selection.
Guggenheim Investments outlines the investment case for infrastructure and real assets, citing a multi-trillion-dollar funding gap driven by decades of underinvestment and secular megatrends including digitalization, decarbonization, and deglobalization. The report covers the risk-return spectrum from core to opportunistic assets, and argues that the middle market ($50M–$500M deals) offers superior relative value due to less competition and more attractive valuations.

Guggenheim Investments' U.S. Economist Matt Bush and Portfolio Manager Evan Serdensky discuss the macroeconomic and market implications of the Iran conflict, including two oil-price scenarios and their effects on inflation, GDP growth, and Fed policy. The episode also covers AI's dual impact on capital expenditure and labor markets, fiscal policy support, and how Guggenheim's fixed income portfolios are positioned amid elevated volatility.
