Join Global X Chief Investment Officer, Jon Maier, and Global X Research Analyst, Rohan Reddy, to discuss the current state of income investing. We discuss where investors can position their portfolios today to generate yield in a rising rate environment including covered call strategies, variable rate preferreds, and real assets like Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). We also look at the trajectory of inflation and why investors should be prepared for rising yields.
