Hey guys. Yields are at record lows, and I think this is a good play...it's based on the 7-10 year us treasury.
it's at 33.46 right now and I'm thinking of buyingg this ETF early this week
what's your thoughts? once again, this is essentially leveraged by 2 (double short)作者: mik82 时间: 2011-10-11 17:34
similar play could be TBT for the 20 years作者: sameeragarwal 时间: 2011-10-11 17:40
Think it's a good play now.
For less risk try TBF which is single short 20-year. Leveraged play is a tough for a long period of time. Because of daily target of 2x inverse return the leveraged etf's may not do a good job of tracking over the long term and should be more of a shorter term play.
If you have the cash, it is wiser to put double the money into the single short than to buy the double short. But you should be willing to hold long term as rates have to go up long term but could obviously keep falliong short term.
