>>First of all, I never said equivalent, I said competitive. And return isn't the only part of the equation, risk is also. As rates rise, the risk/return features of a fixed income instrument are more attractive versus the risk/return features of Cisco stock. Perhaps not enough to get you to sell your stock and buy a bond, but others do not have the same risk parameters as you.

The time to buy bonds is not when rates are rising, it is when they start to fall. That is also a time to buy stocks.

>>Second of all, the fact that Cisco has doubled every year for the past few years is irrelevant. A stock's historical return has very little correlation, if any, to a stock's future return.

You are wrong, of course. It depends on the company and its management.
