Investment Opportunities for 2025: Despite a challenging year for bonds in 2024, various investment options remain promising for income seekers in 2025, including stocks, junk bonds, and municipal bonds with yields ranging from 3% to over 7%. Analysts suggest focusing on lower-quality investment-grade bonds and higher-quality junk bonds for attractive income potential.
Sector Performance and Predictions: Energy pipeline companies and electric utilities are highlighted as strong performers due to their role in supporting data centers and AI technologies. Additionally, international stocks, particularly from the UK, may offer appealing yields, while REITs and mortgage securities present opportunities for stable returns amidst fluctuating market conditions.
