The Federal Reserve's interest rate cut forecast may not be as generous as fixed income investors had hoped, but the tax-exempt municipal bond space will continue to offer a solid deal in the new year. The answer is muni bonds." Seeking opportunities In the muni bond space, investors who can stomach price volatility could be rewarded by taking on issues that have longer maturities. "I like the long end [of the municipal yield curve] because unlike the Treasury curve, the muni curve has some slope to it, and it's steeper than the Treasury curve," said Malloy.

In 1979, former President Jimmy Carter did himself significant political damage in an extraordinary address to the nation on the energy crisis. Carter listed criticisms of his presidency, painting a picture of a listless nation trapped in a moral and spiritual funk. We can see this crisis in the growing doubt about the meaning of our own lives and in the loss of a unity of purpose for our nation,” Carter said. The actor-turned-California governor pulled off a stunning landslide on Election Day 1980, winning 489 electoral votes.
