Richard, 'real' bonds are trading in chunks of $1,000 face value...proxies would be the various bond funds, e.g. the Rydex government bond fund, as well as a host of closed - end bond funds, which tend to trade at a big discount to NAV during bond bear markets. i'll post a list of those a little bit later, but have to tell you, you have to do some DD before buying to find out what types of bonds they are holding. some of the CEF's that trade at big discounts are risky, but i personally consider most of them a buy.
another way of playing an improving interest rate climate are various high-yielding and 'defensive' stocks. details later.

regards,

hb
