Older swimmers in the bond market
By Memorial Day the tax cut and budget cuts will be made.
The Supreme Court is mixed but things are split about where all of this goes.
When the tax cuts come if you own a short term Treasury this situation may be different. It should work out with short term treasuries holding to maturity. But it won’t be that cut and dry for a while.
Anything else in the bond market including a short term treasury fund will be hammered. You won’t get a percentage of your money back ever across a portfolio of paper.
Everything right now is high risk.
Gold I have no clue but if you look at the Kitco one year chart it has bled out the nose already.
