[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3796858, member: 7248"] Bonds have an inverse relationship with interest rates. Meaning when the rates increase, the bond prices decrease. If someone bought a bond today and rates increase, the price of the bond will drop, they would lose money of the sold the bond. And the rate the bond is paying would be locked in at the lower rate. It’s a lose lose proposition to buy bonds if interest rates are going to rise. And the Fed has told us they are raising rates, with 11 more expected over the next couple of years. [/QUOTE]
