0633 GMT - LPL Financial holds a neutral weight in core bonds, with a slight preference for mortgage-backed securities over investment-grade corporates, strategists Jeff Buchbinder and Adam Turnquist say in a note. LPL's strategic tactical asset allocation committee believes the risk-reward for core bond sectors, such as U.S. Treasurys, agency-, mortgage-backed securities and investment-grade corporates, is more attractive than the plus sector. The plus sector in fixed income refers to higher-yielding, non-traditional assets. "The Committee does not believe adding duration [interest rate sensitivity] at current levels is attractive and remains neutral relative to benchmarks," the strategists say. (emese.bartha@wsj.com)
