TLT = the largest long term bond fund.
Note that in the long term, stocks are much better than bonds, even through the 2008 Globalist-caused mortgage crisis, and through the Globalist-caused Covid-19 crisis, by about 3 to 1.

This shows how stupid Steven Spielberg has been, investing most of his money and bonds over the past 40 years. He would probably be worth over 20 billion if he had invested in the S&P 500
Well ......that depends ...
If I wanted to park my money some where safe and just sort of .. hold what I have ... bonds are safe. Sleep sound and go on vacation. Don't play the game.
OR ... bonds move slower and can be more predictable .... so ..look at the 10yr over the last week.
The yield has moved from 4.10 to over 4.3 ... if your holding
4.1 hmmmm ..tough. But if you
bought 4.3 , your in the money and yields are falling as I wright.
Will we see 4.1 again ...I think so... yields have to come down for the market to run.
Will there come a time when traders demand higher yields to finance the debt? maybe..
But for now it's a pretty good trade buying on the up yield and selling on the down.
..... not finical advise ... for entertainment only

I've traded stocks for many, many years. Way back in the early 90's....I only traded O&G and Metals. Got my feet wet...Did well....made mistakes now and then...of course.
Things I learned. Have HARD stops.
Date them.....don't marry them.
I've learned alot from other people..but I know what I'm doing and my way..is just my way.
This current "M" is tough...but I'm still making money....it's harder...but doable.
FWIW-
