The Great Bond Trade
Bonds have been on a 30-year bull run since the early 1980's when interest rates were in the 16 to 18% range. Today, interest rates on the 30-year Bond is close to 3%. These low levels of interest rates cannot last for long, and there's only way they can move - Up. But the question is - when will they move up. The Chairman of the Federal Reserve has signaled low interest rates at least until the end of 2014, but will it be able to control it precisely. How can we put on trade right now that can exploit interest rate moves to the upside, and be ready when it starts to happen. This is a longer term trade that will definitely happen, but in the meanwhile we can profit on a month to month as well. This is a BUSY PROFESSIONALS SERIES trade.
