Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Markets shift like tides across the trading floor
Government bonds today, corporate tomorrow
When interest rates climb high, duration takes a hit
Short-term treasuries become your safety kit
Credit spreads can widen when the fear sets in
That's when quality pays and junk bonds lose their grin

[Chorus]
Rotate, allocate, tactical and smart
S-E-C-T-O-R, know each bond's heart
High-grade to distressed, follow the spread
Credit positioning keeps portfolios fed
Rotate, allocate, ride the market wave
Relative value is the game we play

[Verse 2]
Investment grade shines when uncertainty grows
While high-yield stumbles as recession shows
Municipal bonds dance to their own local beat
Tax advantages make their returns sweet
Mortgage-backed securities love stable rates
But prepayment risk determines their fates

[Chorus]
Rotate, allocate, tactical and smart
S-E-C-T-O-R, know each bond's heart
High-grade to distressed, follow the spread
Credit positioning keeps portfolios fed
Rotate, allocate, ride the market wave
Relative value is the game we play

[Bridge]
Duration risk and credit risk
Two dimensions on your list
Yield curve steepens, yield curve flats
Sector rotation, where it's at
AAA to BB minus
Market timing, stars align us

[Verse 3]
Emerging markets offer yield but bring the risk
Currency hedging keeps your returns crisp
When default rates spike, move defensive quick
Agency bonds and treasuries do the trick
Active management means you never sleep
Scanning for mispricing, profits you can reap

[Chorus]
Rotate, allocate, tactical and smart
S-E-C-T-O-R, know each bond's heart
High-grade to distressed, follow the spread
Credit positioning keeps portfolios fed
Rotate, allocate, ride the market wave
Relative value is the game we play

[Outro]
From triple-A rated down to distressed debt
Sector rotation, place your smartest bet
