Matt Hage shares how muni supply, curve shifts, and tax clarity are shaping the market and where the best opportunities may lie.
Issuance is up, the curve is steepening, and tax policy is finally clear—conditions that have muni investors taking a closer look.
In this episode, host Chris Roberti is joined by Matt Hage, Portfolio Manager at MacKay Municipal Managers, for a timely look at market dynamics and positioning. Matt shares why issuance is running 20% above last year’s record pace, how shifts in the curve are opening long-term opportunities, and what the “One Big Beautiful Bill” means for tax policy and sector risk. They also discuss credit fundamentals, potential catalysts for a rally, and why active management may be better equipped than passive strategies in today’s environment.
