How to Invest When Both Stocks and Bonds Are Falling

View descriptionShare

We hear a lot about how your portfolio should have both stocks and bonds — because they typically move opposite to each other. The theory is that when stocks go down, bonds should protect your principal. The problem? Every once in a great while, stocks and bonds both tank. For example, this year, 2022. As of May 10, the S&P 500 is down 16%. At the same time, rising rates have crushed bonds, with some down 20% or more.

So, what the heck are you supposed to do when there's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide? Let's find out.

Stacy Johnson, financial journalist Miranda Marquit and producer  Aaron Freeman to talk about what's going on in the stock and bond markets, what's ahead and what you should be doing.

This week's special guest is David Stein, a former institutional fund manager and the author of Money For the Rest of Us.
