US Treasuries May Take Hit: Time to Go Short on TLT?

The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield briefly rose to 4.5% today, and TLT may face greater risks in the near term.

While the Fed could step in and print money to buy, the room for yields to fall may be limited before this risk is fully priced in. Are you still holding U.S. Treasuries? What’s your trading strategy?

Greg Boland:Liberation Day is Upon Us

That means they do it to us and we do it to them. Very simple. Can’t get any simpler than that.” He then outlined the tariff imbalances including tariffs by the EU on US vehicles of 10% versus the 2.5% US tariff on EU vehicle imports.
