See: americancentury.com I think it may be about 7.5 years right now. We'll see if the jump in longer bonds affects its value. I have a very large amount of money (for me) in BEGBX, betting against the dollar. But this interest rate thing may kick it up, too. I had been wishing the maturities were shorter, for greater safety. Another bond/dollar play is the discounted closed-end fund FAX. I have the same amount of money in it as in BEGBX. In all, about 20% of my total net assets are in these two funds. As you may have noticed, I got scared short-term of the euro's behavior and mostly got out of the warrants. This could turn out to have been a major mistake on my part. I guess the trick is to get out of the bonds before the huge world-wide inflation hits. Out is the easy part. Into what is hard.
