Keep an Eye on This Trade
TLT is the easiest trade for me to buy and hold. TLT is the 20+ year bond treasury ETF.
Because it tracks long-term bonds, yield rises as interest rates are cut. So if we see interest rate cuts, the TLT move higher.
You can also look at names like TMF which is more volatile, or names with strong dividend yields like MO or SO.
You can actually do calculations based on expectations of rate cuts. For example, if we saw a 1% rate cut, with 20 year bonds, we would expect to see a 20% move in TLT.
The tricky part is determining what โbaselineโ is to estimate how much you have already moved towards that 20%.
I will say for me - this is an easy long-term buy and hold. I expect it to go higher as we see rate cuts transpire over the next few months and beyond.
