Since the beginning of this year, my investment in tax-free municipal securities has been in free-fall. This past month alone, it lost almost $2000 in value. Anyone know the reason for this?

The reason is you went to a non-fiduciary "adviser" who is actually a salesman who put his OWN interests ahead of yours by selling you individual bonds. Go with a total bond market index fund next time. Or IEI if you want a little less risk. Same with stocks. Pick an S&P 500 index fund like VOO or SPY.Since the beginning of this year, my investment in tax-free municipal securities has been in free-fall.
