DON'T BUY

If the US Fed doesn't cut rates until 2025, then sell this now. Inflation won't fall to 2% in a straight line, and he expects a delay in cuts.

E.T.F.'s
DON'T BUY

He's not bullish on 20-year bonds, ever. And he doesn't like ETFs to start with. If you want to speculate on interest rates falling, then this is a good ETF to buy. But he thinks you're better served with investments of 5 years and under, where there's better rate of return potential with less chance of loss.

If we had a recession tomorrow and rates went to 0%, this ETF would rally substantially.

E.T.F.'s
COMMENT

Long bonds like this one have been in steep decline, some 40-50%, from the moment that rates started to increase. Fortress-like, ultra-long-term bonds that you expect to be the ballast in your portfolio. Yields are a bit higher than before, but we're still talking 3-4%. On such a price decline, it's cold comfort.

E.T.F.'s
PARTIAL BUY

Owns shares, but has trimmed in $170 range. Higher interest rates tough on bonds. Good hedge for people who think recession on horizon. Would recommend for a small portion of portfolio. 

E.T.F.'s
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 03/22, Down 9.3%)

Is priced in US dollars. The long bonds have been getting smoked, but the cheaper they get, they better. His return is roughly even, considering the exchange rate.

E.T.F.'s
TOP PICK

Considering his three top picks: he will equal eight them on Dec. 31 to rebalance his portfolio. Will hold USD in TLT and PHYS.

E.T.F.'s
COMMENT

It is down over 9% so far this year but if interest rates come down you should see some lift. Has about a 4% yield.

E.T.F.'s
TOP PICK

He's recommended this before and he's negative on this, but he is not leveraged. But he collects a nice coupon in USD each month. The key is to rebalance your portfolio once a year, say December, to buy more or less of this.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 25/23, Down 6.5%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with TLT has triggered its stop at $100.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  This will result in a net investment loss of 6%, when combined with our previous recommendations.

E.T.F.'s
BUY

3.80% yield is fairly strong for 20 years.
Good time to buy for long term investor.
Very safe investment.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate TLT, a low MER defensive ETF holding 20-30 year US treasuries, as a TOP PICK. During periods of market uncertainty this holding will benefit from a strengthening US dollar and a flight to safer assets. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $90) to $100 looking to achieve $130 – upside potential over 20%. Yield 2.6%

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

We select TLT, a low MER defensive ETF holding 20-30 year US treasuries, as a TOP PICK. During periods of market uncertainty this holding will benefit from a strengthening US dollar and a flight to safer assets. We recommend setting a stop loss at $90 at this time looking to achieve $130 – upside potential over 20%. Yield 2.67%

E.T.F.'s
TOP PICK

He thinks we are in a recession already and it will get ugly, though economic numbers and the street's perception is that things are fine. You want to be long USD and long TLT. If deflation and the USD rises in the US, long-term interest rates will crater.

E.T.F.'s
HOLD

Many seek safety in the bond market, unless you get years like 2022 and 2023 when interest rates rise quickly. Also, a long-dated bond is risky if rates run up like last year. That said, bonds have better return prospects than stocks. If we enter a recession, the more likely there will be rate cuts and the longer the term of the bonds the greater the price impact. Hang on, don't sell, if you already own.
