Short US Treasury Bonds

Filed under Jim Rogers, Treasury Bonds

Those going long on the US Treasury Bonds are cashing it in as week after week the US Treasury Bonds defy gravity, deemed as a safe haven as investors ignore yield falling to record low. The Inflationist see no reason why anyone should be pumping money into a bankrupt government trying to bail out bankrupt companies. Make no mistake, the higher it goes, the greater the fall. Jim Rogers have been shorting Treasury Bonds before it rocketed to its recent high, and believes that this is one of “the last Bubbles” intact. The Inflationist have been sitting on the sidelines, rubbing our hands and cheering on the continued rise of the 10 and 30-year US Treasury Bonds. The cracks are starting to show as it took a 4% drop over the New Year as traders reel in the profit and close their long positions. We will start nibbling and anchoring our shorts as soon as it makes a rebound (hopefully) back above 140. Although fundamentally driven, we are monitoring technical indicators to confirm a break lower before we pull the trigger - and we will happily fire more shots on its long way down. No one can ever pick the top nor the bottom, but there is alot of money to be made for everyone here.
