The bond market is already presenting attraction enough in yields. It is all about perspective relative to ones positions verses gains or loses thus far.

Yes,the market could see higher highs but the risk/reward is tainted toward a downward bias,imo. Players who know the market well will usually beat the percentage odds by reducing the risk side of the equation. Question is,how many players are left ? The fundies are already posturing...

This has been one hell of a Bull market,no doubt about it. It has been nurtured by the Federal government in various qualifying tax incentives via a broad range in retirement accounts,capital gains distributions tax adjustments and dividend yields. Those implementations of the Fed was all FA induced creating a hedge and allowing TA to further take over. I wonder where our indexes would be if the Fed had not continued to intervene ?

Maybe I am wrong here. That is the risk I take.

Overall,those bond yields have not kept me up at night.
