The Fed’s decision yesterday, March 15, to raise interest rates another quarter of a percent, initially saw bonds jump. I thought the reaction was simply knee-jerk because reading through the Fed announcement it is obvious they are heading toward 3% by mid-2019.
This means bonds have further to fall in my opinion, but certainly not overnight. As always there will be spikes and dips and those are what I look for to trade in.
The TLT ETF is the 20 year plus ETF from iShares. As such it is a medium to long-term bond fund and I find a very good product for selling options against.I have traded in this ETF for more than 10 years.
