U.S.-China tensions escalated this week due to both countries' implementation of tariffs. Despite tariffs, Nikko Asset Management believes in a strong outlook for Asian bonds this year based on strong fundamentals, monetary easing, and supportive policies.

With the U.S. Fed cutting rates, the fixed income outlook for many U.S. investors may be changing. Yields on cash and somewhat safer offerings may not be able to offer as much upside.
