"Benkea thank you for calling me an idiot."

Sorry, I didn't mean it personally. However, I think buying 6% bonds as we come off a deflationary trough is hazardous to your wealth. Further, I think the bond bull-market will be coming to an end as the equity market does the same.

But then again, Buffett bought $10 bil in "fixed income securities" (probably bonds if not some preferred) last quarter, and he is almost NEVER wrong. Witness his near perfectly timed sale of the Zeros. Or his perfectly timed merger of his near 100% equity port with GRN's near 100% bond port (tax-free diversification as well) less than a month before the bond market rally and equity sell-off of last summer.
