We Have Initiated The Treasury Bond Trade

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“You must look into other people s well as at them.” – Lord Chesterfield

TECH CORNER

Nothing new has changed in that the economic data is still trending down. If it continues in that direction we expect the U.S. Economy will enter into a recession. I just can’t tell you when.

The big news is that we have initiated the fixed income (bonds) trade. We have allocated most of the trade over short to intermediate durations from 1-3 years up to 7-10 years. Almost all of it is in U.S. Treasuries with a small tranche in high grade corporate bonds. 

Technically bond values have broken out to the upside of their trading channel range. We are being conservative for the time being by keeping durations short. If the trend continues, we will extend the duration of the portfolio. For now, the managed accounts and the Variable Annuities are all positioned in high grade intermediate bonds. If and or when the recession starts, interest rates tend to decline and bonds historically do well. Remember when interest rates decline, bonds appreciate in value.    

If you have friends or family in need of financial life planning services,

It would be the honor of Laurence Lof Financial Advisors to assist them.
