As is the case in seemingly every other year, advisors and investors have a slew of choices when it comes to possible contrarian ideas for 2026.
After a few weeks of speculation that the Federal Reserve won't lower rates in December, expectations have shifted. Odds that the central bank will trim borrowing costs this month have surged to nearly 80% from 40%.
The Federal Reserve has delivered two interest rate cuts this year. And there's significant momentum for actively managed bond ETFs.
ETFs have breathed new life into active management, due in part to the union of fixed income and ETFs. Some fresh faces are contributing to that trend, including the Neuberger Berman Total Return Bond ETF (NBTR).

The recent downgrade of U.S. debt may have investors skittish about safe haven Treasuries. To curb these thoughts, one strategy fixed income investors can implement is to diversify their bond exposure.
Tariffs continue to confound investors, including those in the fixed income market. Because that's where the need to diversify becomes more imperative.
