- The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF invests only in Long-Term US Treasuries at a time when rates are historically low. Doesn’t sound like a time to be long bonds.
- I will review in depth TLT and briefly cover two better choices and one 3-7 Yr US TSY ETF. All three are better choices if you believe rates are going up.
- Being in the camp that believes rates will be climbing sooner than the Fed desires, I would avoid the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, thus my Very Bearish rating.
