re the 10 yr bond, take IEF as an example, yield is 3.35 %

if you were to buy this now, what would the primary reason be ? yield ? capital gain ? or do you expect both ?

---

how many millions does one need with such yields to make a decent go of it without other income ? maybe that is part of the reason why the place is full of goldbugs, hoping for capital gains and outsmarting the other goldbugs in trading acumen !

can pension funds make a go of it with 3.35 as a return ?
