I am reaching the age of 60 this year. The stock market has had a long bullish run. However, because of economic uncertainty and my age, I want to reposition my portfolio into a more defensive posture. I have read much advice recently but would like to hear from others who have personal experience with this or from anyone with ideas about defensive investments that might offer yields above bank CD rates.
