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: Bond investors have been at this crossroads several times already in recent years, making plans for what experts say is the inevitable return to a climate of rising interest rates, only to see the Federal Reserve once again decide inaction is best for an economy that many believe is still in recovery mode.
