TREND1, On this past weekend's program, he was recommending a portfolio of LADDERED CD's for those who fear an imminent rise in interest rates. However, the FED has promised to keep interest rates near zero into 2013.

While we've experienced recent hype that the economy is starting to improve and housing is in the process of finding a bottom, it's unclear to me this can be believed. The employment numbers don't seem to support anything but anemic growth if that.

The compounding GNMA Fund in my IRA has done very well throughout this Secular Bear Market. I'm watching it like a hawk and monitoring the economy closely is case there's a need to switch. I guess it just depends upon one's tolerance for interest rate risk.

JMHO,
