Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: When rates rise, bond prices fall, but as much as this is like the law of gravity for the debt market, it doesn’t necessarily follow that bond funds have to get crushed when the Federal Reserve finally hikes short-term interest rates.
