Pacific Investment Management Co. (Pimco) managing director Bill Gross is perhaps the nation’s foremost bond guy, but he says investors looking for real returns should turn to consistent dividend-paying stocks like Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson or electric utilities rather than U.S. Treasuries.
Specifically, he noted the Federal Reserve has kept interest rates lower than they should be in hopes of inflating the economy and boosting riskier asset classes, such as stocks. That’s been a boon for the latter but hasn’t translated into success for the former. Meanwhile, much of the Treasury yield curve wallows in negative territory compared with expected future inflation.
