How to Lose Half Your Money in Government Bonds
Yes, you can lose half your money in government guaranteed bonds. The iShares index ETF “TLT” of 20-year treasury bonds shown below has lost half its value in the last 3 years. Some bonds, 30-year Treasuries for example, have been impacted even worse. Long time clients are well familiar with Equitas’s position on bonds having written KnowRisk reports “Return-Free Risk” in 2012 and “The Warning Label” 2014. Did we know that treasury bonds would lose half their value? No, we just thought that a 1% yield was not worth the risk of investing. Now, we are recognizing the opportunity presented by the highest bond yields in decades.
Total Federal spending for fiscal 2023 stands at over $6 trillion with a projected deficit of $2 trillion by the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB). This marks a reversal from last year’s drop, increasing concerns over deficits, inflation, and spending.
