Rates up, Credit Steady: Municipal Yields Hit 15-Year Highs
Municipal bond yields climbed to 15-year highs in the third quarter of 2026, driven by rising rates and record supply rather than weakening credit. Tax-equivalent yields above 8% for top-bracket investors are levels many have not seen in their careers and, in our view, merit a closer look from long-term investors.

Hear Thornburg Portfolio Managers Christian Hoffmann, Ali Hassan, and Lon Erickson as they unpack the forces shaping fixed income markets today, from AI-driven debt issuance to tight credit spreads to a rates market sending mixed signals.
